General Grabber APT
OVERVIEW
The General Grabber APT (FO) is an all terrain, all weather tire manufactured for SUVs and light trucks. This specific tire is marked with FO as it is the original equipment of Ford vehicles.
The tire ensures excellent all weather traction. The tread design and the Duragen compound work together to promote a safer dry, wet, and winter-weather road grip. The tread design finds a firm grip throughout the year, while the Duragen compound maintains its flexibility even in colder temperatures. As a result, the tire has received its three mountain peak and snowflake symbol, which indicates its capability to perform well in winter-weather conditions. The tread's wide grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint.
The model's durable compound and optimal tread design enable it to perform well both on- and off-road. The tread design manages to find grip and traction on soft, loose, and uneven terrains. The tread elements ensure excellent performance off-road. The staggered tread elements and the wide grooves work together to boost off-road driving safety, maintaining a clean footprint. They eliminate snow and mud and eject rocks stuck between the tread elements, effectively preventing stone retention as well. The compound is resistant to chipping and cuts that may harm the tire's casing, ensuring a safer off-road drive.
This model offers excellent durability. Its internal structure maintains the optimal tire shape under the driving and load pressure. This enhances its capability to withstand and carry heavy loads with ease. On the other hand, the special StabiliTread technology widens the tire's footprint and lengthens its service life. It evenly distributes the forces of acceleration, cornering, and braking to prevent irregular tread wear formations across the tread area. Better durability and longer-lasting tread wear to improve the durable performance and usability.
The Grabber APT (FO) guarantees a comfortable on-road performance. When driving on-road, the Comfort Balance technology lowers the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin. This is ensured with the absorption layer located under the tread, which isolates the vehicle from road disturbances. The reduced road vibrations ensure an enjoyable driving experience.
All weather tires receive the three mountain peak and snowflake (3PMS) symbol for their exceptional winter weather performance. They are all season tires with extra winter weather grip, in order to guarantee safer year-round durability. This ensures their true and secure driving ability throughout the year.
Not all tire sizes are suitable for all vehicle types. Please refer to the item specifications for accurate information about vehicle type fitment for this particular size.
Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
