The General Altimax RT43 245/40R18 97V is a premium all-season touring tire engineered to deliver a quiet, comfortable ride alongside dependable year-round traction and long-lasting tread life.

Key Features:

• Visual Alignment Indicators (VAI): Unique wear indicators that allow drivers to visually detect tire tracking irregularities, prompting timely re-alignment to maximize tread life and even wear.
• Replacement Tire Monitor (RTM) Technology: A center-rib tread stamp reads "Replacement Tire Monitor" when new and transitions to read "Replace Tire" as tread wears to the replacement threshold — a clear, unmistakable signal that it's time for new tires.
• PASO Technology: Optimized tread pattern geometry that enhances ride comfort and reduces road noise for a refined driving experience.
• LSA (Low Surface Area) Technology: Improves dry handling and braking performance by maximizing the tire's contact patch efficiency.
• All-Season Compound: Engineered to perform in warm, dry, wet, and light-snow conditions, providing year-round peace of mind.
• 65,000-Mile Manufacturer's Tread Warranty for H- and V-speed-rated sizes, including this 97V fitment.
