General Grabber Arctic 245/60R18, Winter, Touring tires.

Features and Benefits: Winter weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Upgraded load durability; General Grabber Arctic TiresThe General Grabber Arctic is a touring, winter tire made for SUVs. The tire greatly improves the winter weather traction. The detailed directional tread design and the winter weather compound work together to increase the winter weather, ice, and snow grip on the road surface. The high-density siping placement along the footprint enhances the grip with the use of extra biting edges. On the other hand, the durable compound keeps the rubber flexible in freezing temperatures, further boosting the winter weather traction. The tread's circumferential and lateral grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint, increasing the wet weather performance. The tread design upgrades the controllability. The tread design maintains the surface contact while the tires are in motion, which boosts the steering responsiveness and driving stability. The tire is quicker and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire during the performance. The stabilized larger shoulder blocks boost the cornering and maneuvering ability and power, utilizing extra biting edges to make this happen. The high-density siping placement generates friction between the tire and the road surface at the moment of braking, shortening the braking distance significantly. This combination guarantees the driver's control over the vehicle. The General Grabber Arctic upgrades its durability. The reinforced steel belt structure maintains the ideal tire shape under the load and driving pressure. As the tire does not deform, it is able to securely carry and withstand heavy loads with ease. This results in the tire's stronger load handling capability. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
