    Product Details

    When you have to drive in serious snow, get the traction and handling you need with the General Tire Altimax Arctic 12-Studdable Winter Tire. It provides superior winter traction and control through a directional tread and multi angle blocks that grip snow and ice with ease and help reduce the risk of hydroplaning. With stud holes so you can add studs for extra lateral traction, this tire is built to carry you safely and securely through Canadian winters.

    Snow Peak Rated

    The 3 Peak Mountain Snowflake symbol indicates the tire is rated for Severe Snow Service. This is the acceptable standard for winter driving in Canada and provides improved safety on snow and ice.

    Mud And Snow Rated

    The M+S symbol differentiates an All-Season tire from a Summer only tire. While rated for light snow, they will not match a winter tire for traction or stopping distance on snow and ice.

    Accepts Studs

    This tire can have studs installed to provide additional mechanical traction on icy surfaces. Studded tires are prohibited by law in many provinces. Ask at your local Canadian Tire store.

    • An interwoven centre tread with straight siping provides a rigid structure for great steering response and stable dry handling in low winter temperatures

    • The directional tread design offers exceptional water evacuation and hydroplaning resistance for excellent wet and snow performance

    • Tire will accept studs for additional winter grip; check with your local store on provincial regulations regarding the use of studs

    • Multi-angle block edges allows the tire to have gripping edges in all directions for additional lateral traction and maneuverability in snow and ice

    • Wheels sold separately

    • Studs sold separately

      These winter tires are great. I've had opportunity to test them aggressively in the last few storms. Great grip for traction, braking and steering control.

      Price vs performance way above expectations

      a month ago
      I’ve been running these winter tires for a bit now, and overall they’ve impressed me. The grip on ice and in snow is excellent — the kind of traction that gives you real confidence on winter roads. Braking and cornering both feel solid, even during colder mornings. The only downside is the noise level. They’re noticeably louder (got studs on) than my previous set, especially at highway speeds. I also noticed a very small change in fuel consumption, but nothing dramatic just a slight drop, which is pretty normal for aggressive winter tread. Overall, great performance where it matters most: safety and traction in harsh winter.

      Questions

      1 - 8 of 8 Questions

      Q: Is the tire performance and wear impacted if not using the studs. As in do the holes affect the performance versus a tire that doesn’t have the holes in it?

      2 years ago
      3 Answers
      • A: No — the presence of stud holes alone does not meaningfully reduce tire performance or accelerate wear when you run them without studs.

      • A: No, it is NOT tires AND rims. It is just for the tires. You buy the tires and they put them on your rims.

      Q: How much does it cost to get studs installed? Have never owned any. Thanks

      2 Answers
      • A: Hi! You can contact the store nearby for pricing. You can also choose the pre-studded option for General Altimax Arctic 12 by searching "General Altimax Arctic 12 Studded". "Studded" indicates they are already studded by the manufacturer. Thank you!

      Q: What is the UTQG rating for these tires? (Traction, temperature, and treadwear)

      a year ago
      2 Answers
      • A: Quote from a tire manufacturer. "UTQG markings are not required for deep-treaded light truck tires, winter/snow tires, temporary spare tires, trailer tires, and tires under 12-inches in diameter" Because they're meant for winter conditions, a valid UTQG code compared to a summer tire is not possible. Winter tires typically have a softer runner compound for the colder temperature. This would result in accelerated wear if used in summer. However from experience (2 sets) I can say the the Altimax are a very good winter tire with the first set lasting me 5-6 winters
