General makes good tires.
I would recommend the General g max AS 05 or newer AS 07. They're pretty affordable and are great all seasons. On Tirerack you can see the ratings and can get them pretty cheap there as well. I've had those on my old ES 350 and recently on my 2022 Camry SE after the oem tires became unbearably loud and wore out at 40k miles.
I used General Tire Altimax 12 studded tires on my 2017 VW Golf Sportwagen for the 4 winters that I lived in central Maine and absolutely loved them. Great winter tire especially for the price.
I like the Altimax on my Passat.
I am on my second set of General Grabbers, and may go for another set. aggressive tread, quiet on the road, and last forever.
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.
I just got 4 General AltiMax RT45 installed on my 2008 Pontiac vibe. All date codes are 3523, so they are pretty fresh. Only put about 300 miles on them so far. I like them, car handles rain, had slight snow nothing crazy, and dry, drives very nice, not loud, but my issue is a *vibration* I never had before.
Avoid all Chinese crap. They’re complete shit, I’ve never hydroplaned a car before but I have on IronMan tires because of how bad they are.
