General Grabber A/T X

THE GIFT OF GRAB

- Jeremy Cook

The recently released General Grabber A/T X comes on the heels of the hugely successful Grabber X3 and replaces the long-running and also hugely successful AT2. When a tire is loved by tire dealer and customer alike, it isn’t easy to improve upon, but General Tire took a big swing at it by incorporating much of what was learned from the X3 while making many small improvements to the already popular tread pattern. But if you think General simply slapped the X3 sidewall onto the AT2 and called it a day, read on, because you would be selling this truly all-new tire and the engineers short.

This is usually where we plug in a bunch of fancy marketing terms to describe the new technology, but we’ll try to let you in on what they actually do for the tire instead. A great example of this is General’s DuraGen Technology, which translates to an additional absorption layer under the tread for a more comfortable ride and a proprietary compound that provides long and even wear with extreme cut and chip resistance.
