The Generals are great, i had a set of falkens on the car and my new wheels i put the generals on and the handling in the rain was way better, dry they might be a little sticker but i really don't push my car that hard so i really cant say.
I have these tires and i like them a lot. You should print out tireracks price, take it in to where your going to buy them and they should match the price. thats what i did and i got my 17's for 70$ something a peice.
Had em on my last 3 cars and the new one...Great tire but that's WAY too much for em..Tirerack.com should be more like $80 per tire.. Good in the rain and great around turns... It's NOT a snow tire though, it's a high performance summer tire. Overall I LOVE them...
I just got them mounted on Tuesday night, so haven't driven them far. They ride far nicer than my Nokian Hakka winters . Only downfall to the Generals is max pressure is 44 psi, so it's pretty marginal. But they are a 100H tire, so that's good. Plus they were not pricy.
Compared to the stock 18s, I'm quite pleased to announce that the 22s actually ride as nice if not better. Part of this may be their 73lb/corner weight (not much over stock but still not as light). It floats a bit more than stock, but even with the low-profile tires, its not harsh.
i am actually running the same exact tires and they are not the best on dry ground,( remeber they ARE SNOW TIRES) but for the few experiences i had with them one snow it was awsome. great traction
No complaints. Not too soft for dry days and they get the job done in the snow just fine.
They suck on dry (to soft)...but when I got them in the snow...They are awesome..
I was going to buy Nokian summertyres but because they don't manufacture 205/45-16 size and 205/50 would have been too high I decided to try Hankook Ventus K102 cause my friend recommended them for me. They are not bad compared to how cheap they are and will last MUCH longer than for example GY F1.
I've had bad experiences with 2 out of 5 General Tire Exclaim UHP's I've bought. First tire had a terrible vibration from day 1. When the tire shop mounted my tires, they said one balanced fine, but may have a "hop" at highway speed. Well, the "hop" was very noticeable. When the wheel was on the back, the car shook so bad on the highway I literally could not drink coffee without spilling on myself. When the wheel was mounted on the front, the steering wheel would shake so bad my hands would go numb. I had this tire replaced under warranty and the car drove great. A couple weeks ago, after coming into town from a highway commute, I could hear a loud rhythmic humming at around 50 km/h. Tire shop again tried re-balancing this wheel with no improvement. Tire has hardly any wear and wheel itself looks to be in great condition. I didn't hit any rocks of potholes before this started. This is getting really annoying. I just want a reliable tire.
