Best in test for wet and dry braking, with very strong wet grip and a high comfort score that makes it easy to recommend.
Not the best on curved aquaplaning, and it's only mid-pack for rolling resistance and measured noise.
The new General Grabber HT takes the win by a small margin by acing dry and wet braking, having the best wet lateral grip, being good enough in the snow, though I would like to see a little more snow traction, and by having good comfort levels. It's rolling resistance is a little high and it didn't do great in curved aquaplaning, but both objectively and subjectively it's a really nice on road product.

Given 90% while driving a Ford F 150 (275/60 R20) on mostly motorways for 10 average miles
UPDATE (though not 'mid life, more like 'early life'): August 2025 - vehicle is F150 with the 3.5L tyre size 275 60 R20: now have 17,000 km on this set of General H/T's, including 11,000 km road trip (Toronto to Edmonton to Banff to Radium to Jasper & return) pulling GVWR 6794# travel trailer (caravan). Note: in tow mode tyre pressures front 40 psi, rear 44 psi. For regular day to day 36psi. Highly recommend the H/T. Grip: outstanding wet (both towing and non). Toughness: Potholes, broken and uneven pavement ( plenty of throughout Canada west): handled all with ease. One down side, on gravel roads the tread will eventually shed most of the gravel the tyres pick up, however the tread will retain some gravel for quite a while. No surprise: rear tyres on the F150 have more wear: attributable to the F150 trailer sway control feature (applies slight braking independently to each rear wheel as required: prairie winds are noteworthy). Conclusion - H/T's so far - given price savings: likely slightly better than Michelin (compared to Defender's on a Outback), certainly from a ride perspective. And quieter, with better ride than Hankook Dynapro's (oem on F150). sd.

General Grabber H/T (side wall includes 'GT' letters) tyre is new to Canada, - replaces the HTS60.
the Gen's H/T - manufactured in Slovakia - were my third choice to replace the F150 OEM Hankook Dynapro Ford tread.
First choice was Michelin LTX, second choice Continental Contact H/T. Interestingly both now (March 2025) not available in Canada.
Apparently Michelin is not shipping USA manufactured tires to Canada - likely due to Trump's new tariffs. Continental may be same issue.
NOTE some Michelin's (sizes unknown) are manufactured in Nova Scotia, Canada, however the tire size for F150's are made in USA
The Gen's installed April 1, 2025 (after waiting one month for my dealer to 'find' any Michelin's), driven 1600 kms so far in cool & some snow / wet conditions.
Too early to be more definitive on 'grip', rate acceptable for now, hence the '8'. Waiting for a good rain storm to determine wet cornering / braking grip.
Will update all ratings after 3 months.
A wee bit noisier, and definitely more road feel than the Hankook's, a good plus. And like almost any quality good tyre, an improvement over the worn Hankook's.
