I dont care about road noise so i stick to Vitour Tempesta Enzo semi slicks, insane cornering stabilty, dry grip is phenomenal as well as steering response.
Go for the Vitour P1. Just out a set on my MR2 this weekend. Wow so much grip
The rugged-looking alloy wheels of the prototype, shod in General Grabber A/T Sport tires (275/60R18), sound like a fitting choice for the production model.
I have been using this specific tire below for almost 20 years. Had my 2006 for 11 years and now my 2017. They have great wet road handling. Excellent tread wear. I get about 70K miles a set. Not sure what your price range is but don't skimp on tires, especially on a truck. You want that wet road grip.
Update 6 months later: I haven't gotten a chance to test them in snow despite getting them in January. It was a very mild winter. But I noticed immediately how much better they handled in the rain. Compared to those these made a real difference and I felt safer. I don't notice any more noise with these.
Basically, both are pretty good tires and at an equal price or a little bit more, I'd take the Generals...
Went with the Generals and have been getting anecdotally very good efficiency.
I'm running them on my C7Z (315/345s on 18s). Only one event on them so far (next one is tomorrow) and can confirm they are stupid fast. I was running Conti ECFs previously and about 70% of my first event on the P1s was trying to find the limit and learn the tire.
My thoughts are the tires work fine. I do get a little rubbing at extremes, but no significant loss of traction on icy, snowy stuff.
They are great when they are new but as you put miles on them and the tread wears I thought they sucked. I replaced my generals with about half tread life because in the rain they liked to hydroplan.
