Very impressed!

I have a 2015 Dodge Charger RT and I drive a lot of miles for work, so I needed good all-around tires that were still able to keep up with my spirited driving style.  I was hesitant about taking the ""budget"" approach with these tires but have been extremely happy with the G-Max tires!  The lateral cornering ability of these tires, especially considering the heft of the Charger, is impressive.  It takes quite a bit to generate understeer and they remain predicable.   The wet traction is awesome! I had begun to question driving a rear-wheel drive vehicle in MN (it should be noted that I do have winter wheels and tires for the winter months) with all the rain and temperature changes, but the wet traction of the Generals is very impressive.  After 7000 miles treadwear seems to be even and minimal.

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.

All around amazing tire on a BRZ

I bought these to replace the stock michelins on my 2014 BRZ and they're better in the rain than the michelins were in the summer. I drive my car like I stole it and these tires have never let me down I even took it up and down dirt roads and they hook up and grip just fine on loose gravel I have nothing bad to say about these tires they are excellent all around.

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 tire!

I bought these for my summer cruising car and absolutely love them. I am a mechanic and put the tires on myself and they balanced so nice. I only have put about 2000 miles on them but with nice weather coming that should go up! My favorite part of the tire is the simple sidewall design. Nothing distracting or obnoxious at all. Simple smooth design. Tread  pattern is nice looking but more importantly offers a smooth safe and quiet ride. They did excellent on wet roads! I would definitely recommend this tire to anyone with a sportier car.

Excellent Tire

Bought these for my Fiesta SE Sport.  Made a considerable improvement to handling over factory sport radials.  Car sticks better and corners harder than was previously possible.  On top of that, I've seen a slight improvement in mileage on a car that already was turning 28-29 mpg in town.  Win-win!  Would definitely buy General tires again  Cannot comment on tread-life yet but I have no reason to believe they will not live up to their rating.

Great handling tires

These tires not only look great on my Cadillac xts but they sure do handle  great . You can't get the best of everything ,  I'm sure i could find a tire that road smoother (these are not bad) but for a 20 inch low pro tire i would definitely  recommend  them .

Excellent Tires!

Bought these to replace the factory summer tires on my RS Camaro. Was looking for good all seat replacements and these tires are incredible!! Great summer performance and looking forward to colder winter performance as well. Even people in the industry said these are a great tire at any price.

Smooth Ride, Excellent in Rain, Superior Handling

I purchased the G-Max AS-05 tires about a week ago and have already logged over 500 miles with them on my 2007 Lexus ES350. I drive 30K interstate miles a year. I have almost 300K miles on my car and have always used the more expensive Michelin tires...and a few other ""trial"" brands which could never match Michelin performance. Well, as soon as I hit the road with the G-Max tires I knew I had a winner. The super smooth ride and tight steering response is 5 stars so far. Traction and overall vehicle control on wet, stormy roads has been excellent. Since I keep my car in top shape, including wheel alignments and rotate/balance every 5000 miles, I have a very good idea within the first 5000 miles on how tires will perform and last. It is my opinion that General's G-Max AS-05 has become Michelin's new worst nightmare. If these tires continue to perform well and last beyond 40K miles, then goodbye Michelin!!

Great grip but.......

Tires grip in wet and dry very good.  Snow no go.  Only draw back is when tires are cold there must be flat spots that make the tires vibrate alot.  i still have a small vibration once they warm up,  had them re-balanced twice. Maybe the rims? they were purchased new with the tires, Tolerable but not perfect.Price was good  225x45R18
