General Grabber HTS review

“and wrote a review about them, do a search. they ran extremely strong, cornered well, and screamed like a gurl around the corners. mileage did not seem to be any better than the "N" rated tires, but the price was much better.”

“I honestly think the Grabber HTS tires are weak to punctures Just spent $320 at Firestone I was not expecting to pay after only 5400 miles. The stock Grabber HTS tires are supposedly good for up to 50,000 miles IIRC. I barely made it 10% on one of them. This wasn’t the first time the tire picked up a small screw either. First time I got lucky and Discount Tire extracted it without needing repair because it didn’t make it deep into the tread. But last week I wasn’t lucky. Passenger front tire picked up a screw and sure enough, it went in. And it was only about 1.5” from the sidewall so they wouldn’t repair it. I went to Firestone and picked up a Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra. Not a “great” tire but at least I have a road hazard warranty, something the General Grabber tires don’t have. I’m sure someone will chime in about having zero issues after a million miles with their Grabber HTS but honestly, I haven’t had a legit puncture since 2007 and at that time I was poor so my car always had recycled/used/mismatched tires. I also noticed the tires on my Lightning ALWAYS have gravel and small rocks wedged in between the treads even though the truck is on city streets mainly. I never see that on my other cars.”

“Well , I have them on my 2003 Chevy Silverado 4x4. Put them on at 42k and now at 52k they look like they are 1/2 gone!! Good riding tire , low noise, great in rain and snow ,even wear pattern ,( ran at 39lbs air pressure / 35 psi in winter) but they are gonna be "iffy" for this coming winter by the looks of them.....geeeeesh. I rotated them at 6 k miles too. Nope....I would not buy the HTS Grabbers again. BOB in PA.”

“General Grabbers I found a guy on marketplace who bought some general grabber HTS for his truck and they didn’t fit so he’s selling them. They’re 11/32 tread life and he’ll take $350 for them. They’re my size but I’ve never heard of the brand. I have a 4Runner in Florida so no snow but is this a good deal for that brand? Read more”

“i have over 29k miles on my Toyo 19s. i suspect i will get another 10K out of them. out of the box these tires are great. wet traction was awesome as is dry traction still. noise is more than a sedan style tire, it is a 5500 pound vehicle, AKA: a truck. last weekend i traveled back up from SC in a torrential downpour on I-95. easily 6 inches of rain fell that weekend and the roads were awash with puddles and standing water. i noticed some slippage, i actually had to slow to about 60 / 65 mph. when new they handle standing water better. i also have General Grabber HTS tires on one of my work trucks. they seem to be a good low cost tire. i don't drive the truck enough to give a thorough review, but i would buy them again for a work truck. i should get 40K miles from them and they were about $110 for 17s.”
