General Altimax RT45

With improved longevity and all-season performance, the General Altimax RT45 is here for you, season after season.

General Altimax RT45 Features

When you need a long lasting all-season tire for your passenger or crossover vehicle, turn to the General Altimax RT45. This tire replaces the customer favorite Altimax RT43, coming with your favorite features and enhancing its performance beyond expectation.

The Altimax RT45 is an economy tire that yields amazing results without those sky high price tags. It boasts responsive handling in both wet, dry and light snowy conditions with reliable braking, to boot.

Other features of the Altimax RT45 include:

  • Built in a wide spectrum of sizes, it fits a range of vehicles, from sub-compact passenger cars to minivans and crossovers. 

  • Select sizes include an Outlined White Letter (OWL) sidewall feature for a sporty, high-end look.

  • Improved treadwear resistance compared to its predecessors, the RT45 delivers a long-lasting tire service life thanks to its optimized tread pattern.

  • Visual Alignment Indicators (VAI) show proper alignment and treadwear, giving drivers an easy method for checking their tire’s wear. 

  • Letters in the tread read “Replace Tire” when worn down to 2/32.”

    Great all purpose tires, I have been running them for years on my 2nd Gen Prius, they are affordable get good gas mileage and are good enough in Colorado, but I always use cables when I’m in the mountains

      I had Michelin Defenders before these and I always felt like they didn't grip the road. It was also easy to slide in the Michelins. I feel much more confident driving with the Altimax RT45 tires.
