The Grabber Arctic is General Tire's Light Truck/SUV Studdable Winter / Snow tire developed for the drivers of pickup trucks, sport utility vehicles, and vans looking for traction on winter's slushy, snow-covered and icy roads. Designed to offer traction in near- and below-freezing temperatures, Grabber Arctic winter tires are molded to accommodate optional metal studs.

Grabber Arctic tires feature a robust cut- and chip-resistant winter compound that maintains flexibility in freezing temperatures. This compound is molded into a broad, directional tread design featuring a central row of tread blocks flanked by independent intermediate blocks and squared-off shoulders. The intermediate and shoulder blocks feature angled interlocking light truck winter sipes to combine dry and wet performance with snow-biting surface edges. Diagonal and zigzag sipes work together to increase three-dimensional traction in deep snow. Alternating rows of optional metal studs can be inserted into the shoulder and intermediate tread blocks to increase traction on hard packed snow and icy roads.

The Grabber Arctic tire's wide, flat footprint is supported by ultra-high-strength steel belts reinforced with spirally wrapped nylon to deliver exceptional penetration resistance and even footprint pressure for excellent braking and confident stability under all approved load conditions. General Grabber Arctic tires meet the industry's severe snow service requirements and are branded with the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol.

Install Grabber Arctic tires in sets of four only.

Molded to accept optional 11mm (TSMI #12) silver-colored metallic winter studs.

Kumho Road Venture AT52 Reviews

Owners report excellent dry traction with scores of 9-10, highlighting confident handling and stability on paved surfaces. Wet performance earns consistent praise (7-10 range), with strong hydroplaning resistance in most conditions. Winter capabilities show reliable traction in snow and ice (scores 7-10), though a few note reduced grip on sheer ice. Ride comfort receives positive feedback (7-10), with many appreciating smoothness despite occasional mentions of road noise. Treadwear ratings (7-10) reflect durable performance for an all-terrain tire, though longevity varies slightly based on driving habits. The tire's balanced on-road manners and rugged versatility make it a strong choice for drivers prioritizing all-weather capability.

These might be the best ON ROAD AT tires I have ever owned. They are aggressive without the annoying road noise usually associated with them.

The Kumho Road Venture AT52 delivers excellent snow traction, with most ratings scoring 8s and 9s. Deep snow performance is strong, often rated 9-10. Ice traction shows solid capability (many 7s-8s), though some variability in lower scores highlights room for improvement on slick surfaces.

...SUV performs much more confidently in all conditions, especially when dealing with Upstate NY lake effect snow conditions. Confident that these tires eliminate the need to have two sets of wheels and tires, one for summer and one for winter.

...These tires are extremely quiet with really great response and handing. Tires felt very safe and apptopriate for my assertive driving style...

First time trying Kumho tires. Researched them through tire rack and the internet.
I enjoyed theses tires on my mid size truck/SUV Sportrac. Even though they are a P and not LT tires, which i usually get. I got a little taller tire and a little wider. For better truck body sit and response with a footprint.

These tires are extremely quiet with really great response and handing. I ensured to have a proper alignment and balance also. I just returned from a road trip, from Philadelphia to Orlando, dry and rain driving, highway and city.

Tires felt very safe and apptopriate for my assertive driving style. I also three family members in vehicle. Truck bed loaded with luggage, coolers, etc. and a canopy. Average cruising at 70mph. Used a 44psi in tires. Absolutely quiet, only Yokohama noise cancelling tires have been equal,and firm responses. Braking was exceptional. Even my wife drove and liked
it.
I have also put same style on my 1989 Camaro Convertible. Waiting to try that out.

...In fact, it feels more planted than my non-LT tires...

Going from General Grabber Highway treads to an LT all terrain, I was worried it was going to ride rough and be noisy. Can't hear the tires on the highway at all, ride is just as smooth. In fact, it feels more planted than my non-LT tires.

Definitely a worthwhile upgrade. Also noticed it rides smoother on gravel. I purchased for towing stability, I haven't pulled my trailer yet with it though.

...They provide solid performance, good ride quality, and dependable wear over the long haul...

This is my second set of Road Venture AT52 tires, and I couldn’t be happier with them. My first set lasted nearly 70,000 miles before needing replacement, which is impressive considering my driving conditions. I regularly tow a 32‑foot camping trailer and split my time between highway and city driving, and these tires have handled it all without issue. They provide solid performance, good ride quality, and dependable wear over the long haul. I liked them enough to buy them again and would absolutely recommend the AT52s to anyone looking for a reliable, long‑lasting all‑terrain tire.
