I’m on the lookout for some honest feedback about the General Altimax 365AW tires. I’ve heard they perform decently in all-weather conditions, but I want to hear from those who have actually used them.

Key Areas I’d Love to Discuss:

  • Performance: How do they handle rain and snow compared to other all-weather options?
  • Longevity: Any comments on tread wear over time?
  • Comfort: What’s your experience with road noise and comfort?
  • Price vs. Value: Are they worth the investment based on your experience?

I’d appreciate any testimonials, links to expert reviews, or just your overall impressions. Looking to make a smart buying decision, so your insights would be invaluable. Thanks in advance!

I’ve been using General Altimax 365AW tires for a year now, and I must say they handle wet roads quite well. The traction is impressive during rain, no hydroplaning issues so far.

I completely agree! I also had a good experience with them in light snow. They grip well, but I wouldn’t push them too hard in heavy snow conditions.

I had a similar experience! They feel stable at high speeds, which is a plus. Definitely a good all-around tire.

I tackled some snowy roads last month, and while the Altimax tires performed decently, I did feel they slipped a bit when accelerating hard. Just a heads up!

That’s interesting! I wonder if tire pressure plays a role. What pressure do you keep yours at?

I’ve driven through heavy rain and felt completely safe. The drainage on these tires really works! Highly recommend them for wet conditions.

That’s good to hear! I think that’s crucial for safety. Have you guys ever noticed any noise while driving?

Surprisingly, they are quite quiet for an all-weather tire! I expected more road noise, but they’ve been pretty pleasant on long drives.

That’s great! My last set of tires was noisy, so it makes a huge difference for comfort.

Overall, I’d say the General Altimax 365AWs are reliable. They may not be the absolute best in snow, but for mixed conditions, they perform well enough.

Exactly my thoughts! They’re not perfect, but they do what they need to do.

Just a fun thought: these tires might as well be named ‘365AWesome’ for how versatile they are in various weather! Haha.

Haha, I love that! They definitely live up to their name for year-round use.

Has anyone experienced any unusual wear on these tires? Mine seem to be wearing down quicker than expected after just a few months.

I’ve noticed some uneven wear on mine too. Could be alignment issues. Have you had yours checked?

It’s worth checking alignment, especially if you drive primarily on rough roads. Glad to hear generally good feedback from everyone about this tire!

I’ve had the General Altimax 365AW tires for about two years now, and they have held up really well! I’ve done around 25,000 miles, and the tread still looks decent. It’s definitely worth considering if you’re looking for longevity.

That’s great to hear! I’ve been looking for tires that last longer. What kind of conditions do you mostly drive in?
