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

Fantastic tires

I bought a 2009 Mazda 3 which had horrible tires on it, the G-MAX AS-05 tires transformed the car. Living in Seattle, wet traction is a priority and these tires are great in the rain.  The AS-05 also offer sharp steering response, wet or dry, a quiet and comfortable ride and don't cost a fortune.  All three of my vehicles now have General Tires on them.  General has become my preferred brand.

No issues.

I have had these on My Sonic RS since about 2017 or 2018. I have put about 25k on them. Car handles extremely well on dry. Wet is good around turns. Snow is good but I don't drive it in snow as car is low and cts like a plow. I really hear no road noise at speeds above 45mph. I would buy again, as they aged out before tires wore away. I replace tires at 5 years old, regardless of low the mileage maybe.

Great tire!

These tires have been great. They grip really good around corners and during the rain. I haven't used them in winter weather yet so im not sure about snow and ice performance. They are quiet while driving down the highway and ride smooth. I am very impressed with the performance so far. I think i have found a new car tire at a great price as long as it performs good during winter weather.

Great tire for the price

Four of the last five sets of tires I have bought have been G-MAX AS-05s. The other set were for my Miata, and the AS-05 doesn't come in the proper size for it. The G-MAX has a better ride, good handling, and produces less road noise than any other tires I have had for the last several years. They have an attractive tread pattern and look good on the cars, too. I intend to continue buying them for all my cars for the foreseeable future.

Very satisfied

I put these on my two Saab 9-5 Aeros, one has covered about 11000 miles, the other 6000 miles.  Just coming out of a Michigan winter and am very satisfied so far.  Traction and grip are very good, fast cornering is sure footed.  Snow and ice performance was acceptable.  I will buy these again if the expected  lifetime is met without the characteristics deteriorating too much.

G-MAX AS-05

Had these installed on my 06 Solstice, as recommended by tire rack. Have not driven to many miles so far, but happy with tires. Good traction, quiet, nice ride. I have had General tires on other vehicles and have never had any problems with any of them.

Short life, handle well, good grip

On my second set of these, wear issues on heavy Flex Limited ecoboost AWD. Never get near stated treadwear, car has under 100k miles and worn out latest set (don't remember what O.E. tire was or how long they lasted but need new tires at 97k. Noisey and worn on inner aspect.

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.

My first set of Generals. So far, so good.

I've had these for a couple of months now. I noticed right away that these tires are much quieter than my last set of Goodyears and give me a smoother ride. Wet and dry traction are great but I'll have to wait a few months until I can try them in snow. I definitely got my money's worth. These are the first set of Non-Eagles in 20 years.
