The G-MAX AS-07 hones over a century of General Tire's development into an Ultra High Performance All-Season tire designed for the driving needs of sporty sedans, crossovers, SUVs and light trucks looking for a tire that delivers the fine handling characteristics they expect and can also handle a myriad of weather conditions, even light snow.

G-MAX AS-07 Callouts

Building on the success of their previous innovations, the G-MAX AS-07 features a performance-focused compound molded into a new asymmetric tread pattern for adaptable year-round performance. A strong center rib provides responsive steering and solid on-center feel, while the wide outboard tread blocks put more rubber on the road to maintain grip under hard, high-speed cornering. A trio of circumferential grooves starting from the inboard shoulder join a fourth, staggered outboard groove to resist hydroplaning, directing water from the contact patch when the road turns wet. The G-MAX AS-07 was intended to withstand the cold too, with an all-season compound and siping to ensure the biting edges necessary for snow traction are there for every revolution of the wheel.

Internally, the G-MAX AS-07 features a polyester body casing extended into a high turn-up in the sidewall for additional reinforcement and stability at high speeds. Twin steel belts capped with a dual-layer polyamide reinforcement cap support the tread for uniform handling and durability.

...Outstanding wet traction, which is very important to me. I'm in Ohio...

I am extremely impressed and pleased with this model of tire. I also have it on my Subaru Legacy. Outstanding wet traction, which is very important to me. I’m in Ohio. I have nothing but good things to say about these, which has surprised me given the price. Definitely recommend! And relatively light weight, and the tread pattern looks good too.

This is my second set. They have been great, even have a decent snow capability. The set on my 2004 Aero wagon are about worn out so I'll be buying another set soon.

...This January has started with a Winter punch. The snow has piled up but the deep tread design just rolls through that snow easily...

I have always loved General Tires every since my Grandfather made them at the factory in Akron Ohio. The name stood for quality and endurance. I bought this set of tires to replace a set of General Tires. I can count on them wearing well and offering a smoother ride. The stability decreases gas mileage and the pressure doesn’t fluctuate significantly when the season changes. This January has started with a Winter punch. The snow has piled up but the deep tread design just rolls through that snow easily. This was the easiest purchase for tires that I ever made. Tire Rack was great. They suggested tires for my make and model car. I picked the ones I wanted and put in the right size, paid and that was it. This was an absolute pleasure and I will do it again for my next purchase.

...I drive a 2005 mustang with an open rear differential and still was able to drive in very bad snowy weather (very carefully)...

As an all-season tire, the AS-07 performs very, very well. I previously owned the older version, the AS-05's and this next revision held up to my expectations. I drive a 2005 mustang with an open rear differential and still was able to drive in very bad snowy weather (very carefully). The wet performance on my rating was negatively impacted by the wide tire size, which I have found to be more susceptible to hydroplaning than thinner tires. My car is basically a surfboard in any puddle greater than 1". Dry handling is fantastic. I drive my car hard, and these tires are super grippy and responsive. Well worth the price. I prefer these greatly over the Continental Extreme Contact DWS line of tires. These resisted cracking / dry rot much better. I will be purchasing these tires again.

...The ride comfort is incredibly smooth, and the noise is quite low...

I am extremely impressed with these tires, particularly for the price. The ride comfort is incredibly smooth, and the noise is quite low. Also, the tread depth seems much greater on these new tires than on previous new sets, such as Perelli’s and Michelin’s. I would definitely buy these again.
