General AltiMAX RT45
The Bottom Line
The AltiMAX RT45 is a solid choice for drivers seeking comfort and a quiet ride, backed by a 75,000-mile treadwear warranty. However, its lower UTQG treadwear rating suggests it may not last as long as some competitors, which could be a concern for those clocking high annual mileage.
Important Note
The lower UTQG treadwear rating of 600 compared to the category average could mean more frequent replacements for high-mileage drivers.
