First run was coast to coast... Awesome...

When I decided to drive from NY to LA in my 2002 5-Series I knew I needed new tires.  G-Max AS-05 we're my first choice. Wow! They were fantastic. Smooth, quiet,  comfortable,  high performance,  stylish... all wrapped up I  one package.   3000 miles in five days.. Thank you General!

I definitely will buy this tire again.

The tire is performing beyond my expectations. The ride and handling  of my 2015 Fiat Abarth has improved significantly over the Continental tires I replaced .  I am going to use the G-Max AS 05 tire on my new project car, a 2007 Mini Cooper S convertible, replacing the Michelin run flats.

Great mileage

Have a 2010 Camaro and these tires were on it when purchased it used with 25,000 miles on it. Not sure how long they had been on the car but they lasted over 65,000. I am very pleased with them, very good in the rain and the ride was good for this type of car. Just bought a new set hope they last as long.

Great grip, and smooth ride at a reasonable price

I bought these tires in August and have gone through a michigan winter with them . I know snow tires are better for winter then all seasons but here in mid michigan the snow and ice don't stick around long enough to warrant dedicated snow tires . I am happy to report the G Max's performed in the snow and ice better then expected . I tried these tires as replacements for the BF Goodrich Gforce comp 2-as tires had previously . I loved the grip of the comp 2's but wanted to find something with a little smoother ride . These G Max tires are far smoother and quieter then the Comp 2's  even though they only offer about 8.5/10ths of the grip of the Comp 2's . The tread is lasting longer on the G Max's then the Comp 2's  did . The price of the G Max's and the overall improved ride quality I feel offers a fair trade off for the slight loss of overall grip compared to the Comp 2's . Great all around performance tire for my daily driver.

overall very good tire

Nearly 10,000 miles and still rides better than my original honda civic si tires. Not very noisy but not quiet either. Didn't notice during the cold months when beginning my travel any tire cold flat spots(smooth riding). Again overall a very good tire and handles well during the rainy days.

Great handling sport tires

Bought these as I know the brand name. I really wasn't going to buy all seasons but changed my mind and so far I like the G Max's. Good traction as in no squeal on harder spirited corners and good stopping power. Would recommend them for the buyer that wants a good sporty tire. Thumbs up

Would buy again

Just had these tires installed on 2 vehicles and both sets have been great so far. The ride is smooth and more quiet than our previous brand tires. They have handled well in rainy conditions in warmer climates. No winter use yet, but am sure they will perform well in those conditions also.

Good tire but not great. Harsh road to car transfer noise

Good tire design but not great. I read prior to purchasing that the ride was harsh with a lot of road to car transfer of noise.Spot on description by other people rating prior to my purchase. Clean tire visually, nice profile and thread. But the road and sound transfer is a negative and noticeable. Have not driven in wintery mix but hands down good in rain and dry conditions above average.

Love them more than anyone should love a tire.

Replaced a set of Toyos that were awful in the rain and really didn't do it for me on corners.  VERY happy with these.  I can drive in the rain now without fear of slipping out.  I also feel that they corner 100% better than the Toyos did.  I feel more firmly connected to the ground, they tend to be a lot quieter as far as lack or squeaking at every turn.  Not sure I'd buy anything else going forward.

awesome tires

noticed a sidewall bubble on both of my pirelli scorpion verde front tires. my local tire shop did not have an exact match and i needed them that day for a long trip.  they recommended the general as-05 i purchased all 4 and faced freezing rain, heavy rain and snow for 8 hours. i've had my car 10 years and these are the best tires. when i returned i had my other car fitted with the same tires.
