Get general Altimax if you’re looking for good value
I just replaced my General Altimax 43s with Hankooks and I miss them. The General's were pretty decent in the snow and I had better gas mileage than I have now with the Hankooks. The only downside was they only lasted about 60,000 miles.
I have the General Altimax on my 2000 Toyota Celica GT-S, and they are always surprised to hear I have been about 60k miles on them and the tread is still viable to pass inspection etc.
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.
I drive a 2015 Fit with Avid Ascend GT tires. It can handle the midwest snow just fine. My last set of 4 lasted me a little over 36k miles / 4.5 years with some poor road conditions in the city and lots of highway driving.
I have Yokohama Avid Ascend GTs on my 15. I have 195/55R16s and I don't want to go any wider than that.
My experience with them has been very positive. They have more than enough lateral grip for autocross and tearing up back roads, but are still solid feeling in the frequent rainstorms of the east coast. And while we don't get that much snow where I am, it handles that well enough as well.
My avid ascends have been great for the last couple runs. I am at 225k miles almost. Had three pair. Only complaint is that I didn't get very near the advertised warranty mileage. More like 50k per set.
quite good in wet braking but lack a bit in comfort.
Yokohama AVID Ascend LX 235/45/R18 w A Claimed 70,000 Mileage Warranty On 2022 Toyota Camry SE. Wow, I Paid $199.99 Per Tire. So Far...HORRIBLE\*\* at 30,000 Miles I have 30% Treadwear Left. I Am Livid considering The Tire Warranty is \*\*Supposed To Be\*\* 70,000 Miles. Total Scam BS. So Here's THE REAL\*\* The Tires Will Get You about 35,000 to 40,000 Miles Right at Wear Bar Marks which Makes Them Against The Law To Drive On.
