Yes, they are great tires. I currently run General Grabber ATXs on my truck and have ran General G-MAX performance tires on a previous car without issues.

Pros: great tires, no issues

GENERAL TIRE Tires

I wouldn’t have any hesitations buying General Tires. They are made and distributed by Continental tire, which is generally a reputable brand. Have had experience with both their all season and winter tires in the past and never ran into any issues with them. I used the RT43, G-Max and Altimax Arctic with no problems. There are certainly much worse tires out there, these ones are a good buy.

Pros: good buy, no issues

I'm also currently running a MAXXIS Desert IT front tire on my KTM 1090 tubeless wheel without issue. Its a hard compound tire that is designed for the tough stuff, and I also recommend it.

Pros: designed for tough stuff

The best blend of traction and longevity I've ridden so far is Maxxis Minions in the 60 compound. They held up to multiple days in Whistler Bike Park and were still in fine shape.

Pros: traction and longevity

My initial impression of the Generals is that they are quite comfortable. Compared to the PSS, I think they definitely provide a better ride in normal driving situations. I’ve seen this is chalked up to a softer sidewall, and I can confirm that. Noise levels are good too.

In spirited driving, I think the Generals are perfect for the street. The main detractor I noticed is that they are a bit more vague than the PSS in the initial turn-in before providing that on-rails feeling of holding grip through corners. My unofficial test for grip is seeing if I can double the recommended speed that you can see on a sweeping on ramp or exit. The Generals delivered without much drama. These tires are perfectly at home on a windy back road as well.

Pros: comfortable, good noise levels
Cons: vague initial turn-in
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 1200 km

I just put on my 285 75 16 maxxis at811s a few days ago. Road noise is almost none, you would have to turn the speakers off and listen for it. Load rating E so stiffness is definitely a given. Braking is definitely harder because of the weight.

Pros: road noise almost none
Cons: braking is harder

GENERAL TIRE Tires

It’s not a good brand but it isn’t the worst.

But with the exception of the general grabbers. Those are some good off road tires for trucks

Pros: good off road tires
Cons: not a good brand

I've had bad experiences with 2 out of 5 General Tire Exclaim UHP's I've bought. First tire had a terrible vibration from day 1. When the tire shop mounted my tires, they said one balanced fine, but may have a "hop" at highway speed. Well, the "hop" was very noticeable. When the wheel was on the back, the car shook so bad on the highway I literally could not drink coffee without spilling on myself. When the wheel was mounted on the front, the steering wheel would shake so bad my hands would go numb. I had this tire replaced under warranty and the car drove great. A couple weeks ago, after coming into town from a highway commute, I could hear a loud rhythmic humming at around 50 km/h. Tire shop again tried re-balancing this wheel with no improvement. Tire has hardly any wear and wheel itself looks to be in great condition. I didn't hit any rocks of potholes before this started. This is getting really annoying. I just want a reliable tire.

Cons: terrible vibration, car shook, steering wheel shake, loud rhythmic humming, unreliable
