Grabber AT 3
Just been re shod down at local tyre depot and after problems with a locking wheel nut I'm now running on the new AT 3 from General Tire . Too early to give a review obviously but early indications are good ie low noise levels , feel quite positive / grippy also given the wet roads around here this morning . They look good too
Thanks to Dean at AJS also for prompt excellent service

Same impression here
So far, seem grippier on the wet leaves and good on the wet twisty roads.

I'm hoping they are as good as my 18" AT 2 s although really hoping they turn out a bit quieter . As for the AT s that I had on my p38 they were absolute garbage IMHO !

Only fitted today but first impressions are good,
I don't find them noisy, gripped the road really well even over wet leaves on some of the twisties, and felt good at motorway speeds.
Found braking improved as well
Never looked at the mpg, but I never do Embarassed
If anything on the minus side, they seem to cause a hell of a splash in big puddles
Only my opinion though
Thumbs Up

After travelling through falling snow, plenty rain and a wee bit of dry road today, over 250 miles,
These tyres never ever felt like they were losing grip, and no noticeable noise at motorway driving
-2 when I left home +2 was the warmest I saw it today.
Just after taking this, I managed to get past it,
And before I get a , I know I shouldn't have been taking a pic when driving

We will have the 275/45x20 General AT3 in stock next week.
The 255/55x20 General AT3 will be a little longer coming through.

If you are not in a rush I would hold out for the 255/55x20 but you can use the 275/45x20 with no problem.
