Two scoring systems, side by side
Owner scores come from reviews found online; road-test scores come from instrumented tests. Where they disagree, it is usually a discipline owners rarely push to the limit.
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.
By owner reviews
79/100From 6 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.
By road tests
73/100Scaled across every tested tire: the average gets 70, the best 100.
What owners like and dislike

The General Grabber H/T is highly regarded by users as a reliable, high-value highway tire that performs exceptionally well under demanding conditions, including heavy towing. Owners consistently praise its wet-weather grip and structural durability, positioning it as a strong alternative to premium market leaders.
Pros
- Excellent wet-weather traction and stability
- High value-to-price ratio
- Robust construction capable of handling heavy towing loads
- Reliable performance in diverse road conditions
Cons
- Limited availability in certain regional markets
- Lack of long-term tread life data due to the tire's relatively recent market introduction
Worth knowing

- The 275/60 R20 size demonstrates strong structural integrity when subjected to varied road surfaces, including potholes and damaged pavement.
