I got the Altimaxes on my older Escape, and have been very happy with them. Quieter and better handling than the Coopers they replaced.
I have had excellent luck with General Altimax Arctic and Nokian Nordman winter tires.
I like my General Grabbers personally but I do about 5% off roading in CO on difficult trails. Got a full 48k miles off the last pair and I do a lot of road driving too so was impressed
Look at maybe Nexen or General for a cheaper alternative that is more reliable.
If you want a solid, inexpensive replacement that won’t break the bank, the General Altimax RT45 is a great all-season option and runs about $131 each at Discounted Wheel Warehouse, which is a nice step up in safety without spending Michelin money.
We have Vitour Galaxy tires on our car. They are affordable and work very good. We have a 1979 230 and the stock size there would be 175SR14. The closest I could find with white stripes was the Vitour tires in 185/80-14. They are a little bit taller than the stock size and fill out the wheel opening a little bit more, but I like how it looks and drives.
I’ve found general altimax arctics to be a good solution when blizzaks are too much money. Plus these are studdable , if you live in a place where that is allowed. I’ve been running them on my cars for the last 20 years with no issues.
They have been fantastic for me for 14 years.
wrapped them around a set of general grabber atx tires that are 275/70r18 SL rated with 75% tread (33s) and put them on, and well, idk how i feel about them so far. driving on the road so far they’re not that bad, but you can tell they’re 33s and you can hear them, but they’re not that unbearable, but I would prefer for them to be slightly softer.
Meh. Stones until they're proven. The regular P1's were a bunch of hype, which I was looking forward to, then they didn't deliver.
