I own a 2001 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD with the Duramax turbo diesel, bought it new and I have 270,000 miles on my truck now. These General Tires are the Absolute Best tires I have ever put on my truck. I own a small construction company and tow a 34 ft 5th wheel Nuwa Trailer that weights 12,500 lbs dry. These tires with about 30,000 miles on them still look great and have a lot of thread left. They ride quiet and very smooth at 75 mph. What else can we ask for, GREAT Tires

Wonderful simple transaction. Two tires installed on the rear wheels of a F250 Ford and driven from Central Florida to Pennsylvania - good ride and handling even on wet roads with a 1800lb. boat towed behind. Same tires now on front and rear make a good combination.

The most under rated tires on the market probably!! I decided to try a set of these on my 06 F350 dually 4x4 6spd manual. Location is N UT / S ID. Old tires were Les Schaub all season's. I was totally amazed at how much nicer these tires rode and handled. Granted the old ones were..."old" and pretty wore out. But the General grabber HD's are what i'd call the best tire you can buy for work truck / farm & ranch truck usage applications. They have a super healthy tread design that looks similar to a commercial truck tire open shoulder design for added traction. But not too aggressive to where they'll last alot longer than traction tires. Fuel mileage is maximized because the smart tread design. Basically it gives you smooth ride and long lasting attributes without sacrificing traction. Give them a try for your commercial use truck. I'm sure you'll be happy.

These are Great Tires!!!! My 2500HD Chevy rides better now with these General Grabber HD's than when the truck was new 243,000 miles ago. I have put on about 2,000 miles and these tires have truly improved my trucks ride and handling. As a contractor I use my truck to haul some heavy loads. 2 days ago I hauled about 3,000 lbs of sod and I was delighted how the truck rode and handled. I love these General tires.
