Ordered today!!
I just put my G-Max on yesterday. Took a 1 hour ride yesterday evening. Its a little different. I haven't played with the pressure yet. Takes a little more body English in the corners. Not a lot , just a little. Rides better. Smoother. More stable at slow speeds , ie. coming up to a stop. I like it. Gonna try it two up this weekend. Got about 350 miles planned. I like the looks of that fat tire out back. Still corners great. Not much negative to say , lots of positives. If it works out I will probably try the Michelin later on. I own a tire store so its a little easier for me to try things. No body tells me I can't put a CT on a MC wheel. I'll let you know how the ride goes 2 up.
By the way thanks to Bob109 for some information and encouragement. Been riding MC's for 45 years and I was a little hesitant on the CT. But Being in the business it made sense to me, I've always thought that MC tire manufacturers stick it to us. I sell a lot of great CT's in my shop. In some aspects MC tires leave a lot to be desired. I sometimes think they don't try too hard and when they do it costs me $300. I got the G-Max for under $80. Not a very expensive experiment. I'm tickled shytless so far.
For those of us not in the tire biz, please explain G-max. Thanks
General G-Max 195/55-16 car tire. Wasn't trying to be a know it all. If you read the forums then I figured you would know it. "The Biz" don't have anything to do with it.
Thanks
Thanks I appreciate your help.
If you argue with math, you will LOSE!!!!

The attached thread will give you some good info on the General G-Max. I just turned 20K miles on mine and anticipate 23/24K miles of wear before I replace it with the identical tire. So good was the Max's performance, I bought 4 spares. Sold one to my brother-in-law who has yet to mount it. I, personally, will never have a MT on the rear of my 6. IMHO a good "directional radial car tire" is the only to fly
