Good quiet tires!

These were rated highly by a highly respectable consumer group.  These tires are quiet and ride solidly with no slippage on wet pavement. Haven't had them long and haven't put many miles yet, so we'll see if they hold up as I am a low mileage driver.

Happy so far

Replaced a disappointing, worn set of Michelin's with these tires about 2 1/2 months ago. So far I'm very happy with them. They give a nice ride and have good dry traction. Can't comment on wet or snow/ice traction yet. But, I have noticed a slight increase in MPG. Glad I chose them.

Performs Well

I got my new General tires tires before winter. My old tries would easily slide and did not have very good traction in snow at all. I specifically wanted better performing tires in the snow. We just had a historic blizzard last week. We were let out of work early because of the storm. Cars and city busses were stuck all over. I was able to easily make it home 7 miles. I was so happy and relieved.

> 20,000 mile longevity on a FWD Jetta TDI

Was told at 16k miles that these needed to be replaced as they wouldn't pass state inspection due to advanced tread wear. I took them in at 10k miles for a rotation and intended to do another at 20k. I'm now at 20k miles and they've got nothing left. Don't waste your money unless you find enjoyment in replacing tires once a year.

My ""Go To"" tire is the Alitimax RT43

I work in the automotive field and recommend tires for specific applications to clients on a daily basis. The Altimax RT43 has become a very common and practical choice for many drivers, myself included. No other tire in it's price range comes close to delivering the reliable performance and longevity of the Altimax RT43. I even installed a set on my college-bound daughter's car. I guess you could say that the Altimax RT43 also delivers a secure state of mind too!

Smooth ride and excellent handling

We were faced with getting a new car or new tires.  Reading the reviews, AltiMAX RT43 were rated #1 by CR plus they had a buy 3 get 1 free.  We were amazed at the smooth ride and excellent handling for the General tires.  Thanks for the great tires at a great price.

From C/R to me buying and reviewing!

I bought them for my Sienna first, then my Mariner. The tires seem to work well with both FWD and AWD! Snow and winter performance was good. All other seasons were great. We did feel a major difference in ride when installed! C/R recommended these and for the price I/we tried them. Thankful we did!

Best tires going.

I bought these tires 6 months ago for my daughter who live in South Carolina where when it rains; it rains really hard and heavy. She has complete control in the rain with no hydroplaning. I do a lot of research on tires and General always comes up on top. I have General tires on 3 of my vehicles. I highly recommend them.

I have a 205-60-16 Altimax RT43 92H rated on my cycle

I've had this tire on my Valkyrie Interstate motorcycle for two years now. I had it balanced by using 3oz. of balance beads.  I love it. The profile has nice round edges and it is a tad narrower than other car tires I have used and narrower is better on a gravel road. Even 1/8th inch difference on a gravel road makes a difference.  Since my wife has pretty much quit riding and projects,  my road time has dropped dramatically but in the last 2 seasons I have maybe ridden 5000 miles total. I really like this tire. A friend has been a little hesitant to try a car tire on his bike and has not tried mine but he is adding a sidecar so he may do it as the cost difference between a car/ cycle tire makes sense. I've been using a car tire on my bike since 2003. This tire is only H rated but I don't plan on doing any high speed racing. I'm pretty happy with it.   The only reason I looked on this site today was that I couldn't remember where the tire was made.   Fuel efficient doesn't come into play , it's weather you crack the throttle when you have 6 carbs, so I gave it 5 stars for efficient. Also asked- recommend Continental tires?   I would this tire.

Best Tire For The Money

These are the best tires I have ever put on any vehicle we have owned. We put them on 2 of our cars and my mother in-law has a set on her car. They ride very nicely with very little road noise on normal surfaces. They get a little noisy when the cuts on the road go against the tires(cross cutting for drainage). They have worn very well and we keep rotating them at oil changes. Traction is very good on wet surfaces and was surprised at the traction on snow and light ice road coverings. At this point until they discontinue this model, we will keep putting these tires on every car we buy.
