wall of tyre to soft new tyre 3 months old had to replace it

These came fitted on a used 2005 Subaru Forester 2.0X I purchased a couple of years ago, they were just over a year old when fitted and were still relatively fresh (approx 6K Miles on them). I've not particulary noticed any issues with dry or wet grip, though this is probably more down to my average driving style and the Forester's AWD system. I've taken them on gravel tracks and a couple of pretty muddy forestry tracks and found their performance to be satisfactory. I've also driven them across Europe and Turkey as part of a 3 month road trip and had no issue with them. They are characteristically mundane, if you have have the turbo version of the Forester, I would look at other tyres.

I forgot to rotate my wheels since I've owned the car, but after 2 years and about 40,000 Miles into my ownership, the fronts were worn down to 3mm (rears still had decent tread), which given the mileage and the cross continent road trip I'd been on was quite impressive!

While I still have some life left on the tyres, I'll probably replace them with the All Season Hankook Kinergy 4S² H750 205/70 R15, which are currently £20 cheaper per corner and from what I can tell, perform better in overall UK conditions (including the rare possiblity of snow....).

Been fitted for a few months now and been very impressed, decent in the dry, great wet grip, been good on wet grass as well. Hardly any wear yet, cant fault them so far. Would definitly buy again.

Very good tyres all round. There definately is some understeer in dry and wet but these are on a Freelander 2 not something I push into corners too hard! Comfort and noise were important to me and gt plus does well on these compared to other tyres I've had. Car feels undisturbed by large puddles on these tyres.
I tow a box trailer regularly upto 2 tonne so to get 29000 miles out of these tyres I was quite happy with.
4 more going on this week !

I purchased a set of General Grabber GT Plus tyres to replace the OEM factory Toyo R37 tyres the vehicle came with. I was attracted to the SUV specifications and technology indicated on the General Tire website. So far my choice seems to have paid off with better comfort and less noise. Wet and dry handling are good and the tyres appear to be of sturdier construction with a more chunky off-road style appearance. I was half expecting them to be an off-road winter rated compound but this is just a summer tyre apparently. You have to move up to General Grabber AT3 for actual off-road and winter specs. As I drive mostly on tarmac roads in Wales I felt the better fuel economy and wet rating of the Grabber Plus over Grabber AT3 made more sense on a daily basis in a moderate wet climate. Highly recommended.

They were very uncomfortable and unprecise tires. You could never point them into direction you wanted to go. When driving fast on German motorway it was sometimes dangerous, especially on when taking long fast curves. It was also pretty loud. Wear was excellent though.
