Tires Achilles or GENERAL TIRE
The Generals on my car are worlds better than the Pirellis on it before.
The Pirelli P1s were so loud you couldn't have a conversation on the highway, so lacking in grip that a 150hp car could spin the tires in dry conditions. After I went sideways on some wet concrete, I replaced them with General Exclaim tires - their 'sporty' all seasons, all of $50 each from Walmart. It grips like a race car, is quiet and smooth, and tire life is close.
General is good. I have Evertrek GTs on my car, they seem to be a pretty good tire.
Check out Generals Altimax line of tires, I have them on my shitbox beater and they’ve been serving me well for 20,000 miles
I only put Generals on my Jetta and BMW. LOVE THE G-Max for price and handling.
I have the older version RT43's in my Lexus ES300 - they run really well but I will probably replace them in the next 2 years
I put General Altimax 365AW on my Volt and I love them. They are like winter level tires you can drive all year. They’re quiet and I didn’t notice an impact on the range.
Get general Altimax if you’re looking for good value
I just replaced my General Altimax 43s with Hankooks and I miss them. The General's were pretty decent in the snow and I had better gas mileage than I have now with the Hankooks. The only downside was they only lasted about 60,000 miles.
quite good in wet braking but lack a bit in comfort.
The General Max tires I had sucked so bad. Alot of delamination of the tread. Some runs I would lose entire chunks of the tire.
