About This Tire

The General AltiMAX RT45 245/45R20 is an all-season touring tire, designed for sedan, coupe, and crossover drivers who prioritize balanced performance and long-term reliability in everyday driving. Its tread design and compound focus on delivering confident traction across varied weather conditions while maintaining comfort and durability.

The tire features a symmetric tread pattern with robust interlocking tread blocks for stable handling and four circumferential grooves that evacuate water for wet weather performance. Lateral voids, shoulder slots, and sipes create additional biting edges for light snow traction, while the all-season compound balances grip with longevity. Notable technologies include Visual Alignment Indicators (VAI) that wear evenly to show proper alignment and a Replacement Tire Monitor (RTM) for wear tracking. Driver feedback points to strong wet and dry performance with excellent comfort levels and predictable treadwear characteristics.

Compared to performance-oriented tires, it emphasizes comfort, stability, and long-term usability. Overall, it's a solid choice for sedans, coupes, and crossovers used primarily for daily driving and highway travel in mixed weather conditions.
