These are good tires, and consistent with online reviews that I read when I was doing my research before buying new replacement tires.  They have ""tough"" sidewalls for a lower aspect tire, meaning that they do not get sidewall damage when you can't avoid hitting a pothole - of which there are many in Michigan.  I've also found them to work well in snow and track well in the wet.  The ride is good and they are relatively quiet - also seem to handle corners quite well.  The weird thing is they feel ""out of round"" after the car sits overnight...which goes away in the first mile of so after you start driving...I also read this in a couple of other reviews - no big deal, I guess.  These tires are very well priced and a perform very well, particularly considering the price point vs other competitors and their applicable tires in the size that fits the 18"" wheels on my Buick Verano - I would say I drive my cars in a fairly proactive manner...so tires that perform well are important.

I replaced the OEM goodyear tires on my 2014 prius at 42000 miles because they really became very noisy.  They still had good tread.  After much research I chose the Altimax RT43 and am very pleased, they are very quiet and drive well in most conditions.  I recommended them to another prius owner and he is very pleased as well.

Bought in Aug 2018.  After installation, was very happy with the ride noise level, a noticed improvement over the last set of tires on the Venza FWD V6.  The handling of these tires was also an improvement.  Got lazy and didnt put the snows on this winter, and the tires did not disappoint over our entire upstate NY Winter!  Treadwear seems to be meeting expectations.  Great value and high quality, no complaints so far.

After considerable research I was down to 3 choices and decided to purchase the General  RT43 Altimax in June 2017 for my 2010 Toyota Matrix. Best decision ever! I am thrilled with the performance they provide. With superior handling in the rain and excellent in snow I couldn't ask for anything better living in MI. On Fuel Efficiency- my vehicle gets great MPG  City / Hwy, I don't find that the tires increased or decreased this. Final analysis - Best tires ever, one won't go wrong with the RT43 AltiMAX.

I have 3 sets of these tire on a CRV, Outback, and Element. They are great tires. I like the fact that they are quiet tires that don't generate a lot of road noise. The vehicles are all AWD, and I live in North East,  Ohio which gets a lot of snow. They work well in snow and on wet roads, they get good traction, and stop straight. I haven't been in a warranty situation but I expect them to have a long life. The tires were competitively priced and I try to rotate them regularly. I recommend these tires to my friends.

In Nov. & Dec., 2017, I bought 3 sets of 4 Altimax RT43s, for my AWD Equinox, my spouse's FWD minivan, and for daughter's FWD Kia Spectra.  We have 15,000 miles on all these tires.  It's been a snowy winter in NE PA, and these tires have been very good in snow & rain.  They were near the top of the list in CR's 2018 Buying Guide, which is one of two reasons I chose them.  The other reason is the price was very good compared to other name brands.  They appear to have little wear them after 5 months.  I am very pleased with the Altimax RT43s.

Although I don't drive as much anymore since getting these tires (pandemic-I'm sure that will change soon), I feel safe and my air pressure indicator light hasn't come on in months, which has been problematic in the past. I am pleased with these tires, though the ride is a little rougher than expected, but I think it's from lack of use, not quality.

Put a set of these on my wife's 2016 Lincoln MKS Eco Boost last fall. So far we both are enjoying a smooth, comfortable and quiet ride. Winter here in central NY has not been bad this year but when the roads have been snow or slush covered, these tires have performed admirably. If the ride and performance stay on par I just might have to change my rating to five stars.

Good quality and value. Much, much quieter than the GY Triple Tread Assurance they replaced (which was the goal). Performance good not great but that is the tradeoff for reduced road noise better durability on a full-sized car (Charger) driven mostly highway conditions. Stopping characteristics similar to GY.

I bought these tires seven months ago.  They are much quieter then the factory tires  that came on my car. They hold the road really well, don't hydroplane like the factory tires did. I am pleased with my purchase and these still look like the day I put them on. I expect they will give me many miles.
