Planning ahead for that legal date when I have to take off the studdies and this year, I have to buy new tires as the el cheapos I had were totally spent. I have a particular tire in mind but was wondering if anyone here has any real experience with them. I have done my research, read reviews but am looking for some real world input. I am a um.. frugal person, yeah, lets put it that way so I am not looking for stupid expensive tires but I do NOT want cheapo-depot tires either. The tire in question is the General Altimax RT. I currently have the General Altimax Arctic studded snow tires and I love them and for the price they are an awesome deal. The price is great on the Altimax RT also, and have very favorable reviews, but I am still not 100% sure. I know that these cars are a little on the heavy side which may cause faster wear and I admittedly am not the most gentle driver and the roads here, well, its Maine, they suck. I would like to keep the factory size (185/75-14). If anyone knows these tires and would/can recommend something else in a similar price range that would be great too.
