I got my RX-7 a set of General Altimax RT43. For the past few thousand miles, no complaints.
I had pilot sports and switched to the gmax after having blow out after blow out no issue since making the switch. the general tires imo are far sturdier and have way better wet weather performance.
I have changed my tires from Michelin Pilot Sport 3's to General G Max AS-05.
I recently took my car on an aggressive mountain pass in 70 degree weather and here's my findings.
1)Driving at 80-90mph on straight highway cruising the General G Max create more wind noise than the Pilot Sports.
Way better than BFG KO2.
I have the 32 inch E rated version on my F150. They have been fantastic so far, 1.5 years in. I live in SW Montana, so we get snow and ice. They work great for an all terrain.
I've had the General Altima tires for a few years. They have done me well
General as05 is pretty good for an all season
General GMax RS. Cheap and grippy, not too noisy and they do well in the rain.
I have the Altimax HP on my jetta right now. They ride smooth, but has some road roar noise- but not overly bad. Handling is decent and wet traction is very good. Only complaint is that it has been balanced 2x now and I still have vibrations (only) at speeds above 70mph.
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.
