Default General Exclaim UHP Tires

I just got a set of them for my Monte at 120 each and they are bad ***. Amazing difference in traction and handling compared to the stock tires. I'll update this thread in a few months when I've seen some more wear, etc. If anyone has any questions, shoot.

I'd recommend these tires to anyone looking for a good performing inexpensive tire.

They don't take a beating too well though, if you have a heavy foot they won't last long.

Panther got some Bridgestone Potenza RE760's. I feel they are better, but also $40 more per tire.

Odd looking tread, you have those? Was it worth the 160? Did you use the Generals before?

I've had the Generals on a previous car, and they did fantastic. Didn't last very long, but that was from abuse lol. The RE760's are going to be my next tire, I haven't used them yet, but everyone I know who has 'em, and Panther and Corny love 'em.
