Latest General Altimax Arctic 12 Reviews

Given 79% while driving a Subaru Impreza (195/65 R15) on mostly motorways for 50,000 average miles
This is a pretty good snow tire. It's a bit noisy on the road, and dry and wet grip are not as good as a dedicated summer, or all season tire. Snow and ice are almost as good as a blizzak, but they will last me 4 seasons, rather than the 2 out of a blizzak. There is a fair amount of road noise, and the rolling resistance is fairly high, i see about a 10% decrease in gas mileage.
