It's been a long time and don't know if they've changed the rubber formula, but the set I had were good tires, with good tread life. I had the original General Grabber AT (looked more like the ATX than the AT2) on a 4Runner that saw a good bit of use in the summer on the farm, pulling seed and water trailers in plowed fields, as well as in snowy/icy conditions. Got snowed in at Ole Miss (band had 2 gigs..made 1 and spent a few days at the Ole Miss motel hunkered down). Made the decision to head back to Starkville and it was an iffy decision. Pulling an enclosed trailer full of equipment wasn't an issue and even went ahead, unhooked trailer and went back to pull the sound guy's pick up, filled with sound equip, out of the ditch and up a couple of hills. Tired never lost bite, got him through the worst, hooked trailer back up and made the rest of the (long, slow) trip at 35mph on an icy 2 lane road home. It was a full pucker trip, but the tires impressed me for future "iffy" outings. I will say that when they had all they could take and nearing the end of life, they got really mushy...changing lanes, I could feel them trying to roll (side roll) when quick, corrective steering was needed.
