We cannot verify love at first sight, but the General AltiMAX Arctic 12 clearly demonstrates its affinity for handling snow and ice. These snow tires offer exceptional winter performance at affordable prices. The AltiMAX Arctic 12 is designed to deliver excellent traction in harsh winter conditions, even without the use of studs. Adding studs transforms this tire into an unstoppable force, allowing you to conquer even the most treacherous winter driving situations. Featuring a directional tread pattern, the Arctic 12 effectively clears water and slush, ensuring strong traction in challenging weather conditions. Its silica-enhanced tread compound ensures a firm grip on the road, even when the temperature drops below 45 degrees. The tire's sweeping angled grooves and lateral notches firmly grip ice and snow, providing reliable traction during freezing temperatures. Additional performance features of the AltiMAX Arctic 12 include 3D Winter Sipes that reduce tread squirm and enhance grip on ice and snow. This tire is certified for use in severe winter weather, as denoted by the Three Peak Mountain Snowflake symbol. Moreover, the tire's snow traction ridges diligently dig through deep snow, guaranteeing confident traction in any weather condition. For exceptional steering response, the tire boasts a unique arrow-shaped central rib. Lastly, the tire is pinned for the option of winter stud usage, amplifying its performance on ice. The AltiMAX Arctic 12 is designed to endure and resist uneven treadwear, thanks to the meticulous work of General's engineers.
