Tires SUMITOMO or GENERAL TIRE

I have had excellent results with General Altimax tires, absolutely excellent. I’ve used them on five different vehicles (pickup, two SUVs, and two sedans - one RWD, one FWD) since 2014. I currently have a set of RT45s on one of our current vehicles (SUV), and they’re just as good as can be.

They are correct, get the Generals! I have a 2002 Mercedes S500 and they are wonderful all season tires. Hold tight around corners at highway speeds and they do well for a rear wheel drive in the rain. I've had the Michelins and Goodyears and the General Altimax are amazing tires and they are a great value for what they are.

But the GT ones are by far and away the very best I've had. They're very quiet, have a low rolling resistance, so great for EVs, and the handling in snow is incredible! It's almost like there is no snow even when riding on it.

I also have a Corolla, had some General Altimax 365AWs put on at Walmart for around 120 a tire and they have held up very well in the Massachusetts snow.

i have general altimax rt45s on my nissan sentra, and i live in a state that gets decent snow and have never had a problem

I like the general altimax artic 12 personally. They outperform the blizzaks I had before them and are very decently priced.

Just got a set on my winter stock wheels about a week ago now. I love the look. I'm currently running Sumitomo Ice Edge tires in the size 245/25/18. I previously had a set of Blizzarks (245/40/18) and can't really feel any significant difference in performance with the taller sidewall.

You'll be fine with the GT Radial Touring VP Plus. My General AltiMAXs have always been a good budget tire as well

Mid range brands that are decent but relatively cheap are General and Cooper.

I learned this for myself a long time ago when I had decided to go cheap for once and get some Sumitomo. I could feel the car's handling characteristics changed immediately (it felt like the back was "gliding" in the turns leaving the parking lot, which was probably sidewall flex).
