Tires Laufenn or GENERAL TIRE

General tires are the best out in my opinion. Even though they are owned by Continental they are a separate entity that does their own thing. The past 5 years I think general is the best because of quality, balance well, good tread life, quiet, etc.

I currently have Altimax RT-45 tires on my Golf Sportwagen (TDI, 6 speed manual). I used to use all-weather tires like Toyota Celsius, which are great for moderate snow. But winters in New England have gotten so less snowy that the Generals are excellent. Good handling, good in the rain, quiet.

I've had Laufenn tyres and found them excellent.

Laufenn (produced by Hankook) serves me well. Bought 4 tires(205/50/16) from Hyperdrive for $600 2 years ago. Almost 20k on my honda jazz and still with heaps of thread left

I've been running General Tire Altmax Artic Snows year round for maybe 5+ years on the same vehicle (no replacement, same tires, not even rotating).

Bro just get laufenn tires, they are phenomenal. Went from cross climate 2 to dws 06 to laufenn and it has been an amazing experience.

I had Michelin before

The General tires on my IONIQ5 are silent on dry road and delivers just as good in général comparing Michelin or Toyo which I had on my car previously

I ran general gmax rs for a full season, 9 events and 6 runs a event. They did well and still got 35000 miles out of them.

They are both average cheap chinese tires. The performance is ok for the price

I changed from Hankook winter tires to Laufenn and in direct comparison they were rather bad in any condition other than heavy snow. (Noisier ,worse traction in dry and wet conditions)
