Tires Nexen or GENERAL TIRE

GENERAL TIRE Tires

I've got Altimax Arctics for both the Focus and BRZ. The Fit uses all-seasons all-season and does OK. I think the X-Ice 2's I had before the Generals had the edge on actual ice but both tires are excellent in the snow.

Pros: excellent in the snow
Vehicle: Ford Focus

I've had these on my past 3 cars (Audi A3 and two Tiguans) and love them, especially given the price. Not the quietest tire but extremely competent in wet, snow, and ice conditions, with good treadwear.

Pros: competent in wet, snow, ice
Cons: not the quietest
Vehicle: Audi A3

Right now I'm running [General Tire Altimax R43s](http://generaltire.com/tires/passenger-and-minivan/altimax-rt43). Most people aren't familiar with General, even if they are one of the oldest tire companies out there.

Pros: fantastic bang for buck

I run grabber at2s on my Wrangler. 35x12.5x15. Weight was actually a major factor in going that route. After checking all the competitor weights the grabbers are the lightest. They are also modeled very similar to The BFG ats and they perform excellently on road and snow. I use my Jeep for daily driving in Michigan and sand dunes/two tracks on the weekend and I have zero complaints.

Pros: lightest, excellent on road

I have the N5000's on my Classix for my Summer wheels, They are OK, Feel better than the stock Contis on the steelies I use in the winter But not the best in the Wet, If its rainning, I can easily get them to spin.... When they wear, I probably won't buy them again . . . J

Pros: better than stock Contis
Cons: not best in wet, easily spin
Part number: N5000

They will work good in the winter on ice and snow but they will suffer on dry conditions and the highway. I find that once you are driving over 50 mph (80km) they turn very unstable and very floaty. Also, they will be loud and cornering on dry pavement is pretty bad.

Pros: good on ice and snow
Cons: unstable, loud, bad cornering
Vehicle: Volkswagen
