A few weeks ago I recommend General HTS tires in a chain and got beat up by a few members for my recommendation. OK, this site is for our opinions and exchanges. I had 115K miles on my HTS's before Irene put one 80' Oak tree on my '02 ST and a second on my house. My ST was destroyed and my house has about $15K of damage. I'm dealing was the insurance company now.
After re-reading the chain on the Generals I went to my local Jack Williams store where I bought my tires. They are a a local chain of 20 + stores here in PA. I asked them the following questions. Do you guys recommend Generals? I looking for tires and was considering the Generals. "We sell 100's of them every week - they've been recommended by Consumers Report as a best buy for 3 years." Ok, any problems with them. "We wouldn't sell them if we did."
So, I showed them a print out of the feedback I was given - No names here!!! The manager and 2 foremen got a real good laugh on reading it!!!! "What are these guys smoking?" So I asked them what gives here, there must be a problem somewhere here!! " Well, who mounted them ? Maybe they should get them mounted correctly!!!!"
Any way, I miss my ST and will miss you guys and all of the good articles you have provided over the years. We miss our ST. Irene was a real Bit--h here. But, I'm thankful no one was hurt. John
Oh, did I mention, I still recommend the General HTS!!! LOL
