From owners

Pros, cons & observations

Themes extracted from owner reviews across retailers and review sites — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.

Tire A General Grabber AT 2

The General Grabber A/T2 (and its successor, the ATX) is widely regarded as a high-value, rugged all-terrain tire that excels in snow, ice, and off-road conditions. While most users praise its aggressive aesthetic, durability, and superior winter performance compared to more expensive competitors, some report issues with road noise, fuel economy, and a tendency for the tread to retain small rocks.

Pros

  • Exceptional traction in deep snow, ice, and mud
  • High value-to-performance ratio compared to premium brands like BFG
  • Rugged, aggressive aesthetic with effective rim protection
  • Strong durability and long tread life for many users
  • Surprisingly quiet and comfortable ride on pavement for an all-terrain tire

Cons

  • Tread pattern prone to picking up and throwing small rocks
  • Noticeable decrease in fuel economy (MPG)
  • Occasional reports of premature tread wear or tires going out of shape
  • Increased road noise, particularly as the tire ages
  • Some users report poor wet-weather grip on specific road surfaces

Observations

  • Heavy-duty truck owners (2500/3500 series) report good stability while towing, though proper inflation pressure is critical to avoid a 'floating' or swaying sensation.
  • Users on smaller SUVs or crossovers occasionally report faster tread wear and higher noise levels compared to truck applications.
  • Load Range E variants are highly recommended for those frequently towing heavy trailers to maintain structural integrity.
Tire B Goodyear Wrangler AT/S

The Goodyear Wrangler A/T S is widely regarded as a reliable, high-value tire that excels in longevity and ride comfort for truck and SUV owners. While some users find its wet-weather traction inferior to premium alternatives, it remains a popular choice for those prioritizing durability and consistent performance across varied road conditions.

Pros

  • Exceptional tread life and long-term durability
  • Quiet and smooth ride quality for an all-terrain tire
  • High value-to-price ratio
  • Attractive, aggressive aesthetic suitable for trucks and SUVs

Cons

  • Reported lack of confidence in wet or icy conditions compared to premium brands
  • Tendency to pick up and retain small rocks in the tread
  • Mixed feedback on true all-terrain capability versus highway-focused performance

Observations

  • Fleet operators and high-mileage drivers report reaching or exceeding advertised mileage, even under heavy-duty use like snow plowing.
  • Users noted that while the tire is aggressive, it maintains manageable noise levels on larger vehicles like the Hummer and Chevy Avalanche.
  • Some owners of performance-oriented trucks, such as the F150 SVT Raptor, noted that the tire's structural integrity helps resolve vibration issues common with alternative aftermarket tires.

How do we compare tires?

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements) normalized against the best tire in each test and weighted toward recent tests. 40% comes from thousands of owner reviews collected from retailers and review sites. When a tire has only one of the two, we use what exists and say so.

Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
