General Grabber HTS60 vs Hankook Dynapro HT RH12 — Compared

“New shoes today !! General Grabber HTS60 275/55/R20 117T Very good rated and $400 cheaper than the Michelins I wanted. Discount Tire price matched Sams Club since they were 2 weeks out.”

“Hey guys, Turns out there's a puncture in one of my general grabbers and the shop is asking that I change all 4 at this point... When came the time to look at new tires, they advised me that these tires are simply Gerneral Grabber HTS60 tires...indicating that they aren't necessarily made different from any regular grabbers they would put on an ice truck. Can anybody confirm this? If so, has anybody tried a different all-season tire like the Michelin Defender LTX by any chance? Wondering if we'd be getting a huge hit in range... Thanks!”

“Just noticed on one of the pics I took of the tire that the factory added about 10lbs of lead to balance it. Seems like they could have done a better job of that... I see the colored dot on the tire and got wondering what that meant. Found this tidbit of info out there: Quote: Where Are the Paint Dots Placed? Quote: The yellow dots identify where a tire weighs the least — the lightest point on a tire. The yellow dot should be lined up and directly next to the valve stem, which is the wheel’s heaviest point. The red dots identify where the tire is flattest — the lowest point on a tire. The red dot should be directly across from the highest point of the wheel, which is usually indicated by a colored dot or a notch on the wheel. If a tire has a yellow and red dot, the red dot takes precedence when balancing the tire. Wonder if the factory people bother to do that correctly?”

“I've sort of got my options narrowed down but it's still a tough call. My local shop's offered 4 Hankook RH12 out the door for $1100 incl balance. DiscTire can do the same for $1000 flat but it adds a stop to my maintenance schedule as I need an oil change, too. I can also order tires from Tire Rack and have them installed myself at the same shop. I should have known falling down this wormhole was time consuming...and expensive, ha!”
