Tires Nexen or GENERAL TIRE
I've got the Generals on my Jetta GLI. I had higher performance tires but kept getting bubbles on the awful New England roads. I'm pretty happy with them. You definitely give up a little bit of grip/road feel on dry roads but they're comfortable for daily driving and the value factor is nice. If you're looking for something that's going to suit you on a day-to-day or commuter type basis I'd recommend them.
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.
If you mean the Nexen N Priz AH7 and not the Aria AH7, I have the N Priz AH7's on my 2019 Kia Sportage AWD which came on the vehicle and I have had no road noise. They've been really good tires actually for me and handle really well.
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 just got the G max RS on my Mk 7 from a dealer. Don’t know too much about track performance but they’re grippy if a little loud while on the highway.
I finally got sick of them on my 2019 at about 21k miles with the rainy winter we had in Southern California and slipping all over the place.
