Rotating tires, system checks, and topping off the windshield fluid.
One set of tires is my only out of pocket maintenance expense.
My maintenance has been a new set of tires, new wiper blades, gallons of wiper fluid.
I have the Generals on my 2000 Boxster. They are pretty good. I can take a 90° turn off a hiway road onto another hiway at 55mph, 60 mph is the edge of traction for a 320 treadwear tire. Spins out at 65mph.
Being picky I wish the sidewalls were a little stiffer. The ride is plusher than the Sumitomo HTR(another not bank breaking option) in my opinion.
I like my General Altimax all-season tires. I did eco tires before and felt like they had no grip.
Wind. I see it all the time here in the Southwest. Washboard road patterns emerge like sand dune shifts in the Sahara. Couple that with constant movement from tires on vehicles, it makes it worse.
Mine had G-Max's when I bought it...just replaced them last year with another set. They are a great tire.
I've used the General Gmax As05 and now the new AS07 for the past bunch of years. Never had any problems driving in the snow and ice of PA or any cold weather at all. Cheaper than Pirelli and Michelins, very solid overall.
I'm running on General Altimax R43 - Grand Touring All Season. Very good tire overall, but when I step hard on the gas pedal, I can't keep the tires from squealing in first gear, even from a roll. It seems the GLI can benefit from a tire with better dry traction.
i know general makes the altimax rt45 in that size, at least we get that in the states. im not a fan of uniroyals at all, the generals are a better tire across the board
