I drive a Hyundai Sonata Hybrid and ran a set of General AltiMAX RT43s to 64,000 miles (3/32” remaining tread). Replaced with RT45s a year ago (13k miles) and they still look new.
Honestly? I've got nothing against Pirelli tires, but the Generals are would be my go to here... They are a better quality tires than those specific Pirellis... Ride better, be quieter, last longer...
I ran a General Altimax (AS??) on one of my older cars and at the time was plenty happy with it.
I am a big fan of General tires in general in the moderate budget category... they are a great cost to benefit tire and part of Continental tires.
The Grabber HTS 60 is a great tire... as long as you don't have to deal with winter conditions.
I had General Altimax Arctic 12s for 2 years and didn’t switch them out in the summer. Surprisingly great performance on all the dirt roads and still held traction on their second winter season.
I had the general altimax on my old Lincoln LS. They were great and would go again if I need dedicated winters.
I have the generals. All day today, I was like wtf is everyone driving so slow. Plenty of grip, predictable and balanced slip. A literal joy on a -40 day in Edmonton.
Ran the 365AW on my Forester & found it to be a competent tire for the freak weather events that happened before/after the winters being on.
Switched to general grabber atx in stock size. I average overall about 16 mpg with majority of it highway driving between 75-80 mph. I would say I lost 1-2 mpg
Currently have General Altimax RT43 on my 15 Limited. I probably won’t buy them again as they are noisey.
