General Altimax Arctic12s here. I used to have some studded Hakkapelitas on my old Forester, but I've been really pleased with how these work studless
I run General Altimax Arctics because that is what they had in stock when I went in to get winter tires. I have no complaints; they were cheap, and I have not gotten stuck despite driving around where I shouldn't.
Also I have put those gmax tires on older 911s and had no complaints and my coworker has them on his sti and loves them .
I am using the All Season G-Max on my 2015 Lancer Evolution GSR. They handle great in the back roads.
These E rated snow tires from General Tire are awesome so far, have deep tread, and options for studs.
Personally I find General Altimax Arctics to be the best snow tire. Bought a set on my old jetta and now on my Subaru. The car is unstoppable in the snow and the price is right!
General Artic Altimax have been my go to for years now quite successfully, great bang for the buck. Just put a set on my 08 B6 3.6 VR6 4Motion wagon and I'm ready for anything.
If you want a Decent tire I would suggest the general tires 365AW grand touring tire they are 3 peak severe snow service rated touring tire with a 540 treadwear so they're not a dedicated snow tire but will do the exact same and you'll also be able to use them year round without them being too soft.
I like General tires for the most part and dislike Goodyear.
I loved my DWS06s... they were loud though. I have General GMAX AS-05s on the Optima. They are quiet with the stock suspension, but not as grippy and wonderful as the DWS06s
