I have been googling it.. Maybe it was just certain ppl who had negative experiences.. Im slammed, stretch tire n negative camber runnin boost. I run the car had.. For the stress I put on the tires its held up rather nicely... Might not grip good in 1st n 2nd but thas cuz of my stance n power... But other than that they've been good to me n r good price

seen FAR too many cases of them bublbling or just ripping apart, I would never run them stretched on my car however for regular sizes i have them on my stockies and they work just fine

but from what iv seen, NO WAY but thankfullly you've had good experiences with them so i guess you're one of the lucky ones

they are like brand new still, haha been on there since i got the wheels

generals have proven themselves over and over

i suppose that a camber of -2.2 and -2.8 helps as well :-)

I thought I was being cheap for buying Generals, but its turned out to be the best decision I've made. My passenger front lasted me 3 yrs. I just replaced.

I have had bad times with the 452s, the inner side wall seperated from the tire. I didn't see it until I noticed low tire pressure. Took the tire off and bam! I see no inner side wall, at all.
