General Grabber HTS

Size: 245/65R17

It was time for new rubber for my WK (running factory 17's). I proceeded to check out tirerack.com for reviews, prices, and information. I was close to pulling the trigger on some Michelin's, but decided to give the Grabber's a shot.

Boy am I glad I did. What a tire! My previous OEM Goodyear SRA's would spin in rain from a stop (sometimes up to 5 seconds, while I was feathering the gas pedal). The HTS's (overfilled for highway driving) performed beautifully in the wet traction department. Cornering and dry traction are also flawless and I also gave them a shot in dirt/trail conditions (also overfilled) and they never gave me any isseues whatsoever. It's no surprise that they are the highest rated tire in this size on Tire Rack. Would purchase again in a heartbeat!

Vaule: 10/10

I will. My Jeep desperately needs a wash... so I'll get some up after that happens. It's a decently aggressive looking tire though.

Yeah, great tire in my opinion.

Nice... I am going to be getting the General Grabber AT2's in November... I want something more aggressive than the HTS, but the reviews are awesome for it, and the price is great too.

As per my review in this section, the AT2's just fitted to my WK have proved fantastic
