Product Info

If you're on the lookout for a tire that is specially designed for winter driving, the General Tire Grabber Arctic can deliver maximum traction in ice- or snow-covered roads. It is made to fit pickup trucks, SUVs, and vans that need the tire upgrade to ensure that you can conquer the unpredictable road conditions brought about by winter. The design comes with slots for optional metal studs for that extra winter traction and aggressive-looking tread made to match lower temperatures.

The General Tire Alitmax Arctic 12 features a winter-enhanced compound molded into a directional tread pattern that has an arrow-shaped solid center rib and tread contour that distributes pressure evenly across the contact patch to enhance treadwear life. The grooves are high-void and angled with broad lateral notches that allow sufficient water and slush evacuation to resist hydroplaning. The serrated sipes and angled tread blocks add more snow-biting edges and improve traction in slippery pavements.

The 3PMSF symbol is embedded on the tread to indicate severe snow service, guaranteeing reliable performance in the snow. The tire's grooves are designed with raised ridges to ensure excellent grip while cornering, braking, and accelerating. The internal structure features a wide and flat footprint reinforced by steel belts and spirally-wrapped polyamide for exceptional braking power, stability, and durability for winter.

Since 1955, General Tire has been manufacturing tires that highlight innovation and expertise in the design and construction. With over 100 years of history, this brand has produced outstanding tires that are loved and appreciated by driving enthusiasts and professional drivers all over the world.

Whether traversing that stretch of pavement or conquering tight trails, General Tire produces the right tire specification and features that match any need. From passenger and van tires to 4x4 tires, the brand has something that drivers and car owners can rely on for their vehicles. The company has over 100 years of history and expertise in tire production, making it one of the oldest and most trusted brands in the industry.

General Tire was founded in September of 1915 as the General Tire Rubber Company, with an established base in Akron, Ohio. Just after five years since it started, the company became lauded as a technology leader by introducing the low-pressure General Balloon Jumbos. The brand sent out one innovation after another, establishing its position as a top premium tire manufacturer.

In 1955 and beyond, the company scored major tie-ups with General Motors and other vehicle manufacturers, indicating the level of trust granted to the brand as it supplies original equipment tires to big names in the automotive sector. Continental AG purchased General Tire Inc. tire division in 1987, giving it the leverage to expand in Europe and the rest of the world.

Today, the brand is held in high regard as the tire producer that delivers robust and durable tires for different applications. As its tagline suggests, with General Tire products, traveling anywhere is possible.
