Not that we recommend this type of behavior! It also means that on gravel the tires have excellent grip, no sliding or slipping, and with controlled throttle application you can create some very nice oversteer. In my case that generally translates into understeer. You can really push the tires in the turns and only suffer the handling limitations of your vehicle. The tires are made of a soft feeling compound, combined with technical lug pattern and siping that conforms to road irregularities giving excellent dry weather grip. They aren’t unpleasant or overbearing but they aren’t silent. The X3 has a pleasant road noise, they are not silent or as quiet as some other tires I have tested. None of that talks anything about the real world noise levels. As your tire wears you will maintain that traction and handling.
#GENERAL GRABBER X3 35X12.50R17 FULL#
They optimized sipe location and made them full depth. General used individual pitch length to minimize tread noise. Creating more capable, more useful, and more versatile mud tires so you don’t have to compromise performance as much to run a tire. When General designed the new X3 they incorporated some AT and all season technology in a trend that so many manufacturers are choosing. The X3 isn’t quite as narrow as the Interco TrXus MT we tested previously, I do think it offers a nice compromise between those square profile tires and a narrow “pizza cutter” style tire. What this does is give you some extra space to play with between the tire and anything it might rub on while giving you the extra size of a 37. This creates a tire that offers plenty of tread width when aired down and at the same time allows it to fit onto most vehicles much easier and with less modification. This is another tire that has a narrow look to it and has a scalloped tread edge. This review is for a 37×12.5×17 General Grabber X3 mud terrain tire.

As usual, I will follow up with an off-road review specific to share how these tires perform in the toughest terrain. The most common situations you will run into when you are daily driving your off road vehicle. I am going to break this down into a few sections. tires, a focus that continues today.Ī history lesson is always great, knowledge of where something came from and the ideas behind it creates a trust in a product. They immediately focused on premium replacement tires instead of O.E.M. O’Neil, “W.O.” and his partner, Winfred E.

General Tire is a subsidiary of Continental Tire AG and has been making tires since 1915 when the company was founded by two Akron businessman William F.
