Default Re: General Exclaims!

Just got a quote for the same rubber (w/o road hazard) from Tirerack - $605.09 delivered UPS to my dealership. They'll mount and high-speed balance the lot for $100. Road hazard would add about $67, so your quote is reasonable if you're also paying sales taxes.

All of the reviews sound great. I'll probably go with them. Sure beats $1,350 for Conti's. Beware, the Generals are a summer tire with softer sidewalls for a smoother ride; not for racing by any measure. Do the Goodyear's if you have a spirited driving habit.

Another member offered a thought ... up-size the tires to 275/35R19 and 235/40R18 for a chubbier look. The Generals do not come in the 275/35 rear tire size, tho, but most other makes do. Sorry.

Good luck.
