General Tire Review - AltiMAX RT45

Great info!

Great review love your videos...can you please do a review on the Firehawk AV V2

how about their own 365AW? where does the RT45 fall? looking to replace Nokian WRG4s which have done well but their price has ballooned and is at $200/tire. these RT45 and 365aw are more reasonable alternative. even thinking about the toyo celcius/celcius2

Getting a second set installed right now. After days of researching alternatives, I stayed with General Tires with confidence.

great review
go hokies!

Are these a good fit for a small crossover like my 219 Lincoln MKC Reserve? I have good Continentals on the back. Can't get them to rep[lace on the front. So, I would like to get the Generals for the front. Okay or should I be looking for another brand for the front?

I have just gotten my RT45 installed today. My tires were made in Mexico though.

Targeted for everything but european cars ... hmmmm ..

had my eye on these for awhile and recently put them on my 2020 crv to replace the oem tires . Huge difference in overall performance . I like that they are usually priced a tier lower than the higher end tire but receive comparable reviews from consumers . So , blizzaks for the winter and these new GT's for summer . I'll be set for awhile .

Hope it’s good on my 2013 Taurus

Yeah, the Goodyear dealership just put a set of General Altimax on the E30, 1990 BMW 325i.
14" wheels and they said Goodyear and Michelin don't make any such tire that fits that car anymore; neither does Dunlop nor Continental.
Altimax was as close to bone stock as they could get.

had to cop these

Will this brand tire fit my Ford transit connect,16 inch rim

Great tires

i'm putting 4 of these on my Acura TLX 2015 on friday very excited general altimax rt45 225/55r17 tires,,thanks for all of everyones reviews

Which is better for outback In ma the rt 45 or Altmax 365 I had the 43 they seem pretty good. Thx

Are these better than Goodyear Assurance A/S? Thx

Thank you for your video review, helped us during search

would you put these bad boys on the v6 Porsche panamera ?

I just order this tire for my Malibu. I bought these to replace the Assurance tires that came with my car. I'm hoping that I didn't make a mistake. Let me know if I did the right thing.

Put a set of these on my winter beater (good luck finding many brand-name tire options for a buick century! there were only 3.) And they seem great. a set was 120$ more than the no-name tire sets, but anyone who's ever driven a car with something awful like a milestar or equivalent, knows that the price difference is worth it. Cheap tires absolutely are made ultra-hard, & consequently will be awful in rain, snow, anything other than dry conditions. and even in dry conditions traction is suspect. General is a subsidiary of continental, so you can feel pretty good that you're getting a quality product.

The other tires I live by are the continental DWS06 all-season.

I put these on my prius prime 2021. My car monitors fuel consumption closely. My gas millage went down 25% the day I put the tires on. I thought there might of been some other factors, but now 750 miles later, with a 500 mile highway trip, I can confirm the drastic loss in gas millage. I am going to replace them. Very disappointed.

Are these directional or non directional tires? Thanks!

Did General stiffen up the sidewalls on the RT45?
I could poke my thumb into the sidewall of the RT43. Made me uncomfortable.

Opinion on the Goodyear assurance finesse ?

My new RT45s were made in Slovakia, the last set of rt43s I had were made in Mexico. Good luck finding ones made in the good ole USA, I read it depends on the tire size where they are made my tires are 205/65 R 15, 94H. Great tires just wish they were made in USA.

I'm trying to decide between these and the Continental TrueContact Tour.

Just got the generals for my Subaru Outback thank you for recommendation!

I used this one my Elantra and replaced the Hankook. Holy cow! This floats on the road like a boat in the water. I feel like I got an a5 upgrade. Hankook is a hard crude piece of crap happy I replaced it with this baby

I found these tires to be very noisy on my Civic.

I work in a tire warehouse and getting these for my vehicle

Is this a quiet tire ? I’m looking to get them

U mention these General Rt45 compare with the Tiger paw, are they any better?

Worth the extra $20 each tire ?

Are these tires directional, symetrical or asymetrical?

Some folks are saying this is noisier than the 43…what is your opinion?

Had these on my forester. Replaced w bf goodrich trail terrains and will never be going back.

Added 4 to my Crosstrek...

Would you recommend these for a Tacoma

General tire is a subsidiary of continental

Just got 4 of these for my Mazda CX-30 and so far, they’re pretty damn good.

Would you recommend it for a 2015 Toyota Avalon touring sport edition? 225/45/18

I'm going to put a set of these on my Impala, seems like a good tire.

Have these tires on my car. Have had them for 5-6K miles? Maybe more. They’re impressive in dry, wet and snow traction. They are responsive when having to quickly swerve. They are nice and quiet. My only complaints are they have a terrible ride quality and they DEFINITELY affect your MPG. My car never felt smooth in the first place but these didn’t do much to help that. I have the same tires on another car and it doesn’t have a great ride either. They were made in the USA.

I had the RT43 on my Camry and loved them, the fact that this tread is much firmer makes me shy away. I had a Tiger Paw on a Volvo XC70 and they were TERRIBLE! The firmness of the tread made them useless in the snow and prone to slipping on dry pavement. Thanks for the heads up!

I liked that I could get a grippy all season touring tire. That was the advantage and made them stand out against other touring all seasons, I even watched some real world tests that demonstrated that fact. I guess they will now last a bit longer but they'll perform worse across that lifespan.

I’m definitely gonna get these tires after your video. Thank you so much. For a woman I really do take my time to learn everything and anything that goes into my car. My car was just totaled a few months back. I did get it fixed, but unfortunately, my car is pulling right so regardless of what kind of tires I buy, I know they’re going to probably get bald real quick. My car is a 2016 Honda Accord sport I’m gonna buy these tires and I need new shocks can you recommend any? Hopefully you respond thank you.

Please please please review the Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra vs the Cross Climate 2 or seperately. Bonus review of the Michelin Premier LTX if possible. Thank you youre by far the best when it comes to tire reviews!

These were just recommended by my tire place. You’ve made this gal confident with their recommendation. Thank you, kind sir.
