Tires OEM BMW or GENERAL TIRE

I had General Altimax Arctic 12s for 2 years and didn’t switch them out in the summer. Surprisingly great performance on all the dirt roads and still held traction on their second winter season.

I had the general altimax on my old Lincoln LS. They were great and would go again if I need dedicated winters.

I have the generals.  All day today, I was like wtf is everyone driving so slow.  Plenty of grip, predictable and balanced slip.  A literal joy on a -40 day in Edmonton.

Ran the 365AW on my Forester & found it to be a competent tire for the freak weather events that happened before/after the winters being on.

Recently picked up a set of general altimax 365aw for my 2013 XV. They seem to handle rain fantastic and seem to be well lugged/siped for snow. Not a dedicated snow tire, but better than all seasons!

I ran them for the past few years in PA winters. Not a single issue. Love them.

I use GMax on my GTI daily. They are a good budget tire.

I have run the GMax before I got a dedicated set of wheels and they did really well, well balanced and still held up for daily driving.

Got my car used with a set of them on there(AS-05), they grip really well but they seem noisy on the road. Not sure if it's my car or the tires. They were descent in the snow. I got through a Rochester, NY winter with them on a RWD Kia Stinger.

I wasn't easy on the tires and a 1.5 years in they are at the wear bars.

It was a commonly traversed dirt road, a little soggy after a rain storm and I backed my dad\u2019s brand new 2008 335i into a small mud depression with the right rear only. Result? Absolutely dead immobile
