I just put General Grabber QT/X and the best truck tires and I live in the middle of the snow belt.
BF Goodrich tires have a compound that is oustanding in the snow, even their non-snow-specific tires are excellent in the snow, due to the compound.
Put on a set of general altimax rt45 on our 23 mY LR awd and couldn't be happier.
Wow, someone else asking about the General Altimax. the answer is YES! they are an excellent brand for the value. I have a 2002 Mercedes S500. They are wonderful tires and held up better than the Michelin or Goodyears. Excellent wet traction for a rear wheel drive car. I swear by them.
I’ve used General Altimax RT, RT43, and RT45 on several different vehicles (pickup, SUVs, and both FWD and RWD sedans) since 2014,:and I’ve been pleased every time. All of the tires hold balance well, ride and handle well, and generally last quite well.
Had them on my Vibe GT and thought they were an excellent all arounder, especially for the price.
Had probably 4 sets of RT43 on different cars. One set went 70,000 miles. Bought them because we get a decent amount of snow here but marginally need snow tires so these are very good in snow and great at everything else with a good price.
High performer with good price makes these a good value buy.
I love them. Have 20,000 miles on mine and 9/32 left. Siping still looks practically new.
Have driven on highway in ongoing snow. Took it slower but absolutely fine. Have driven in pouring rain, absolutely fine. And my mpg went up.
I just got 4 General AltiMax RT45 installed on my 2008 Pontiac vibe. All date codes are 3523, so they are pretty fresh. Only put about 300 miles on them so far. I like them, car handles rain, had slight snow nothing crazy, and dry, drives very nice, not loud, but my issue is a *vibration* I never had before.
BF Goodrich A/T are - IMO - dangerous on wet tarmac. Not bad, dangerous. I have 2 UAZ Hunter cars... On BFG during just 4kkm already had a few very bad slips in curves and a collision, when I could not stop the car in a traffic jam on 2nd gear (ABS grinding like on ice... In may!). Not to mention the previous owner slipped and hit a tree on these. Same cars, same driver. BFG are very bad on wet road and I mean real bad... Dangerous.
