What owners say

No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.

How scores work

Relative score: 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
Road tests: 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
Owner reviews: 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.

What owners like and dislike

Themes extracted from 7 owner reviews found online.

Reviewers on the General Grabber Arctic LT are largely enthusiastic, praising its winter traction on snow and ice, particularly on heavy-duty and plow trucks. Ratings are uniformly high (4 to 5 on the source's scale), with owners saying it clearly outperforms the all-season and all-terrain tires it replaced. The sample is small and drawn from a single retailer, and one review is based on a tire not yet installed.

Pros

Strong traction on packed snow, ice and freshly fallen unplowed snow, including on steep driveways
Marked improvement over previous all-season, all-terrain and 'no season' tires in slippery conditions
Improved braking and stopping in slippery conditions
Works well when studded, which several owners had done
Deep tread and an appealing appearance, with one owner noting compliments

Cons

One reviewer would like a more aggressive tread pattern
Tight fit when mounting on stock Ford wheels, though no leaks were reported in cold weather
Cost is not criticized directly, but one reviewer notes the Michelin Latitude X-Ice was 'quite expensive', implying the General is the more budget-oriented choice

Worth knowing

Heavy-duty trucks (Chevy 2500 and 2500 HD plow trucks) were the most common application, with owners reporting confident traction in deep snow, on ice and while plowing.
Several owners had the tires studded, and they cite this as helping on steep driveways and icy surfaces.
A 2015 F-150 owner replaced non-winter tires and noted the tire's LT construction was a tight fit on stock rims, but the tire is a 10-ply option they had not originally intended to buy. Tire sizes were not listed in any review.
