tires

I'd avoid the General grabber tires or just about any Generals. I bought 6 for my van 245 75 r-16 80psi and all of them have serious runout. I ended up buying 2 extra because I thought 2 were bad. The wet/dry traction are good and so is wear, but at any speeds over 60 to 65 they start to get rough. To give you an idea how poorly built these tires are, I run Bridgestone Snows in winter and they have 1/4 the balance weight of the Generals. I had this same problem with some of thier 50 series V- speed rated tires for our VW VR-6 Jetta. Thier snow tires, however are made in Germany by Conti, and I have had several sets that are qutie good.
