I’ve been considering getting a set of General Grabber ATX tires for my truck, but I want to hear from the community first. I’m looking for some honest feedback on the performance, comfort, and durability of these tires.

Here are some questions I have:

  • How do they perform on different terrains? I’m planning to do some off-roading, so any insights on mud, sand, and rocky surfaces would be appreciated.
  • What’s the ride quality like on road? I do a lot of highway driving, so I’d love to know if they’re noisy or handle well on asphalt.
  • How’s the tread life on these tires? I want something that lasts, so your experiences on how they’ve held up would be great.
  • Overall value for the money? Are they worth the investment compared to other brands?

If you’ve got experiences to share or reviews, please drop your thoughts here! I’m eager to make a well-informed decision before purchasing. Thanks in advance!

I’ve been using the General Grabber ATX tires for about 6 months now. On dry roads, the traction is superb—no sliding at all! But I’ve noticed they can be a bit slick on wet surfaces.

I had a similar experience, especially during heavy rain. Just took it slow and they held up okay, but I’d recommend caution.

When it comes to off-road, the General Grabber ATX tires are fantastic! They handle mud and rocks with ease. I’ve driven them on some challenging trails and they’ve really impressed me.

Great to hear! I’ve been considering taking mine off-road. How’s their wear after rough trails?

I’ve had them for over a year now and the durability is impressive. They show minimal wear even after frequent off-road use. Just rotate them regularly!

That’s reassuring! I was worried about tread life since I plan to hit the trails more often.

I’ve driven the Grabber ATX in all conditions and while they’re great in dry and off-road, I second the caution in wet conditions. Sometimes I feel like I’m aquaplaning if I go too fast.

That sounds scary! Maybe it’s an issue with the tread design? Any thoughts?

10

I think it might be! They have a more aggressive tread pattern, which is great for off-road but can hurt performance in wet conditions. Overall, I’d say they’re still worth it for the peace of mind they offer on dry ground.

11

Absolutely! They make you feel invincible off the beaten path. Just remember, traction is key on wet roads. Otherwise, you’ll end up with a surprise slide! :joy:

I’ve had my General Grabber ATX tires for a few months now and I found the installation surprisingly easy. I mounted them on my Tacoma without any issues. They seem compatible with stock wheels, but I went for 17 inch to give them some additional clearance.

13

That’s great to hear! Did you use any specific tools or techniques during the installation that made it easier?

14

I’ve installed these tires on my Jeep, and I can confirm that they are very straightforward to mount. Just double-check your lift kit compatibility if you’re planning to use one.

15

Good point, lori76! What lift kit did you use? I’m considering a 2.5-inch lift for better handling with these tires.

16

I went with a Rough Country 2.5-inch lift. It really enhances the look and performance with the Grabber ATX tires! I recommend it if you’re looking for something affordable.

Awesome, that gives me something to consider! How do they perform in wet conditions? I want good traction since I drive on some slippery roads.

18

I’ve driven in heavy rain and these tires handled well. They have great tread patterns for wet surfaces. Just keep in mind that any tire can hydroplane if you’re going too fast!

19

That’s reassuring! Do you think they work well in mud too? I don’t want them to let me down on my off-road trips.

They perform surprisingly well in mud. Just make sure not to get too stuck because I’ve seen some folks struggle to get out once mud packed in. A good winch helps for those scenarios! :joy:
