Never had to use 4h, and felt very planted and confident. Granted these are still very new, but they are super quiet and feel like they soak up so much more of the terrain than the Nittos did. I went with the stock 265 70 17 in standard load. I'm not sure how much the grapplers weighed but these feel lighter. I am hoping they do some more C loads down the road, I'd like to try those out. Anyway, if you're getting to the point of getting new tires I would definitely recommend trying this tire out. Wet and snow/ice traction has really surprised me. I think General Tire nailed it with this tire!

Hey there, I'm about to order the General Grabber ATX in 265/70/17 but I am also torn between these and the Falken Wildpeaks AT3. Now, with that said, do you have any reservations about the General Grabber ATX's? I am mostly driving paved roads with the occasional off-road trip here and there plus muddy gravel roads up north. Basically, I am trying to have you convince me either way. I was originally dead set on Cooper AT3 4s's but I read two reviews that said they were a little squirrely on turns on dry pavement and didn't corner that well. That put me off and I had to special order them. Just wanted to ask you for a longer term follow up. Thanks in advance.
