How are those general gmax tires in terms of comfort, grip, and noise?
They are the best tires ive put on the car bar none. Im sure they couldnt stand up to some pilot super sports but they are half the price.
Here are the tires ive ran on this car:
Dunlops - all season. these came from factory and were awful in every way. I had multiple tires develop sidewall bubbles from hitting potholes.
Pirelli Pzero - all season. rode these the longest and bought multiple times. Great grip and ride at first but they quickly lose grip as they accumulate miles, and they are terrible in the rain.
Riken Raptors- all season. These were just a 'good' all around tire in every way. Ok enough grip, some road noise but not much, better in rain and snow than the pzero. Riken is made by Michelin.
General Gmax - summer performance tires. Better than all of the above and the gripiest tires ive had yet. good in the rain, minimal noise and comfortable while retaining responsiveness. Keep in mind the generals are a different size, 235/45/17 and they arent all seasons. The dunlops, rikens and pirellis were all 225/40/18. General is made by Continental.
Hope that helps
