I had the general altimax on my old Lincoln LS. They were great and would go again if I need dedicated winters.
I have the generals. All day today, I was like wtf is everyone driving so slow. Plenty of grip, predictable and balanced slip. A literal joy on a -40 day in Edmonton.
I’m running the Falken Wildpeaks 235 70R16s.
No suspension mods (my car is ALL stock except for these tires!)
I LOVE THEM.
I run Falken Wildpeaks (severe winter-rated All Terrains). Have zero issues driving in snow.
I ditched the stock tires at 20k and went with Falken Wildpeak A/T and it drives perfect.
Working as a ski guide in the Canadian Rockies and running the AT3W on my Tacoma and I love them. Driving snowy highways before plows and un-maintained FSRs they are phenomenal. The only downside is on glare ice they struggle but with that kind of tire any would.
I’ve got a set of Wildpeak AT Trails on my ‘17. Had them for maybe 3 years now. Went with 235/60r17 because I’ve got 17x8 wheels(1in wider than stock). Been a bit louder, but that’s the way ATs are. Being that they’re heavier, there’s more weight getting forced towards the body of the vehicle when you hit bumps/jolts. That extra weight is gonna jolt the body more than the lighter tires/wheels. Mine went from riding like a touring car to feeling like an actual SUV after the change.
For 3 seasons I get good year reliants (100 USD each) for winter falken aklimate that are 3 peak rated (140 USD each) no issues in lite to moderate snow. I don't have extreme snow in Texas.
I can vouch for the General Tire Altimax. I have them on my 14's. They are not very good for sporty cornering (mushy), but the grip is okay.
Lol falken tires were bald within 3000 miles, continentals have almost 12k and still look new.
