In terms of subjective rating, HTS60 was the best among the “rest” with a 8.5/10 rating while the Grabber X3 only managed a 6/10. Grabber X3 was close to 5 seconds off in lap times in comparison with Grabber A/Tx. The mud terrain Grabber X3 continued its bad performance by being last both in terms of lap time and also in subjective points. This leads to the theory that there is an optimum void for snow braking/traction and the all terrain void level seems to be the best compromise.Ī similar story also enfolded in snow handling as Grabber Arctic was top once again while the Grabber HTS60 followed closely behind. On the other hand, the 3 peak mountain labeled highway terrain Grabber HTS60 did not fare as well as the M+S all terrain counterparts. For us it is clear that the AT segment tires from General clearly perform better in snow compared to the mud terrain tires of Grabber X3. In comparison to its AT counterparts, Grabber X3 was 12% worse in snow braking while 25% off in snow traction. However it was surprising to see how bad the Grabber X3 performed in both snow braking & traction. Testing vehicle: Chevrolet Tahoe Snow Braking & TractionĪs expected, Grabber Arctic dominated in snow as it is after all a winter specific tire. We know that the Grabber Arctic being a winter tire would definitely outperform the rest, the question is how much do the other segments differ? Without further ado, let’s check out who comes out on top in the snow battle !
The other 3 tires only carry a M+S log which does not mean much from a testing point of view. This means that these 2 tires are legally certified as a winter tire as they have to pass a certain threshold of snow traction level as determined by the legislation. At first glance, only Grabber Arctic & HTS60 have a 3 peak mountain logo on. The idea here is to find out which tires have the best snow capability, especially the AT vs MT comparison.
GENERAL GRABBER X3 SNOW PERFORMANCE FULL
We will put this theory to test as Tyre Review has done a full comparison of the General Tires with the classification as below. General Grabber Arctic vs HTS60 vs APT vs A/Tx vs X3: Have you ever wondered how all terrain (AT) & mud terrain (MT) tires perform in Snow? There is always a notion that with the large grooves of the mud terrain pattern, it will be able to work through more snow at a faster pace.
