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.
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.
