I run General Grabbers on my vehicles. Great traction and longevity.
I had a set of all weather general tire Altimax and omg. Abit pricy but it’s basically two sets of tires in one.. I’ve had all seasons before and it doesn’t compare to the confidence I had with my all weather.
I went for General Altimax RT45 year round on our Bolt. The price was right, they have good longevity and did well in Tire Rack's tests. Slight dip in range to the tune of ~5-10 miles. Just good all-arounders at nice price. They outdid the Defender 2 in Tire Rack's tests.
I also run General Tires Grabber HTS60 for the Summer, as these were highly rated by Consumer Reports (which I use religiously), and I mostly pull an RV trailer (5,500 lbs) on the highway. They too have been great.
I just ordered a set of tires + rims from Quattro Tire.
This is probably the 8th order from them over the years. Shipping takes about a week, arrives via courier to your door.
Haven't done a super long road trip in my MK8.5 - but have done a few 200mi trips. The car absolutely eats up the miles. Seats are super comfortable, cabin noise is tolerable, and I averaged 34MPG both ways cruising between 72 and 80. I personally despise adaptative cruise control, so I immediately turned it off (aggressive Boston traffic makes it unbearable). I did keep the lane assist on which is fine, not as good as the lane keep in my Raptor, but works very well. I'm more than happy with the ride, and once I get on to some smooth pavement, the 200 treadwear tires really quiet down.
I have them in a 235/75R15. I love them. Way quieter than the General Grabbers I had.
General tires are the best out in my opinion. Even though they are owned by Continental they are a separate entity that does their own thing. The past 5 years I think general is the best because of quality, balance well, good tread life, quiet, etc.
Currently running the General 365aw, and they've been pretty good. I don't think they were as good as the nokians in the snow. (Mind you, we don't get a lot of snow here, it's mostly very wet snow when we do).
I bought a 2024 Ridgeline new in June 2024, and I just noticed dry rotting between the treads on all four OEM General Grabber A/T tires (date code 1424). This happened right before a long trip, and the truck has about 16k miles on it.
