G-MAX AS (05)

General G-MAX AS-05 is an all-season tire specially designed for sports cars, high-performance coupes, and sedans. These tires offer optimum handling characteristics in all seasons, combined with high road holding stability on dry and wet road surfaces. The G-MAX AS (05) model appeared on the market in 2017 and is still in demand all over the world.

About the manufacturer

General Tire is an American brand that was one of the first in the United States to produce affordable pneumatic tires for cars. This brand produces high-quality and affordable tires to this day. But today General Tire tires are not only of high quality but also high-tech. A typical example is the G-Max AS-05 model, which will make driving a car more comfortable and safe.

General Tire now produces high-quality tires in close cooperation with the German concern Continental AG.

About tires in general

More and more powerful and high-speed cars appear on public roads, which, with sufficient driver skill, reach speeds of more than 120 m/hr. For such machines, special rubber is needed, on the one hand, capable of providing optimal controllability, and on the other hand, strong enough not to collapse throughout the entire service life. These are the characteristics of the General Tire G-Max AS-05 all-season symmetric tires.

The G-Max AS-05 is manufactured using advanced technology following modern safety standards. Therefore, these tires offer excellent performance on dry and wet road surfaces, and even on snow.

The composition of the rubber is selected in such a way that the tire is sufficiently rigid and elastic at the same time. As a result, the tires of this model have a short stopping distance, a quick start from a place without slipping, and at the same time resistance to abrasion.

About technologies

The G-Max AS-05 is a high-tech tubeless tire featuring many innovative solutions:

  • GripTread - the technology is implemented in the tread and is responsible for grip on wet road surfaces in the cold season.
  • Smart Grip Technology - This technology is responsible for traction and provides directional stability of the car on straight sections and when cornering.
  • StabiliTread Technology - thanks to this technology, the contact patch with the coating is increased. This provides extra traction, confident starts, and short braking distances.
  • Replacement Tire Monitor - this technology will allow you to determine in a timely manner exactly when you need to change the tire. To do this, there is a longitudinal colored strip on the rubber, which is erased when you need to contact the tire service.
  • Visual Alignment Indicators - this technology allows you to determine the imbalance of the wheels. To do this, the tire has a color indicator and by how it is erased you can decide whether the wheels need balancing or not.

About the composition

To ensure optimal handling, the rubber is formulated with high-quality rubber, as well as polymer and silica fillers. The ingredients in the tires provide high friction and, as a result, good grip. At the same time, polymer fillers provide abrasion resistance, so that these tires last longer.

G-Max AS-05 tires comply with European standards and therefore can be recycled as the resource is used up.

About construction

The G-Max AS-05 is a radial asymmetric tire. That is, due to the tread pattern, the rubber must be mounted on the wheel with a suitable side. If properly installed, you can count on good handling and other benefits of using this rubber.

The tread pattern consists of diagonal grooves, which, when the wheel is correctly positioned, drain water from the contact patch between rubber and road surface. The result is better friction and traction.

The tire construction features elastic sidewalls and a stiffer center rib. This design provides better directional stability and stability when driving at high speeds.

Benefits

  • All-season and all-weather use - the tires are universal and can be used at any time of the year and in any weather.
  • Short braking distance and quick start without slipping.
  • Stable, predictable handling on dry and wet road surfaces.
  • Low level of acoustic noise.
  • Low weight of tires and, as a result, fuel economy - albeit insignificant, but still savings!
  • Easy to identify imbalance and excessive tire wear.
  • Long service life due to abrasion resistance.
  • A wide range of standard sizes and the ability to choose rubber for most modern passenger cars.
  • Reasonable cost in comparison with other brand tires.

Disadvantages

As such, there are no disadvantages, but you need to understand that the rubber is all-season and, of course, in terms of its performance characteristics it will be inferior to seasonal tires. That is, summer tires from the same manufacturer will provide better handling on dry surfaces, while seasonal winter tires will feel more confident on the ice and lose snow. However, when choosing a versatile all-weather rubber such as the G-Max AS-05, we prioritize practicality and save money.

Customer Reviews

Great tires for the money. My regular car is more sporty because acceleration is better now. The car enters corners as if on rails. On uneven roads, the vibration on the steering wheel is less felt. More than 5 thousand miles have been covered on a set of tires, and the indicator is not overwritten, that is, the tires pass the same or more!

By Eugene

Quite good tires, bad that they are rarely found on sale. Many people think that all-season tires are worse than seasonal tires, and this is not entirely true. These tires ride on snow as confidently as regular winter tires. At speeds up to 110 m/hr, the G-Max AS-05 behaves perfectly, regardless of the weather. The manufacturer says that they can be driven up to 170 m/hr. Probably this is so, there was simply nothing to check on.

By Viktor

The G-Max AS-05 is a practical everyday tire. The main advantage of rubber is that it is installed and forgotten. That is, you use the car until the wear indicator on the tire is erased. This is especially convenient if the weather changes frequently and there is no time or desire to often contact the tire service.

Verdict

The General Tire G-Max AS-05 is a general-purpose tire suitable for all-season and all-weather use. The tires are declared as sports, but it would be more correct to recommend them to the owners of any modern passenger cars. Thanks to such rubber, your ordinary passenger car will become more sporty, comfortable, and manageable. These tires on sale are presented in many standard sizes, and therefore everyone is guaranteed to find those G-Max AS-05 tires that are suitable for his car.

All in all, the General Tire G-Max AS-05 is a great rubber, as are all the products that this brand makes. We recommend purchasing!
