General Tire Expands Range of Grabber X³ Off-road Tires

Hanover, August 2020. General Tire is further expanding the Grabber X³ line-up. The tire brand with its American heritage now offers a total of 38 versions of this off-road specialist, nine of them with red sidewall lettering.

“The latest additions to the range starting this fall include the LT 265/60 R 18 size,” says Matthias Bartz, Business Development Manager, General Tire EMEA. “This fits a number of key models in the pick-up segment, like the Ford Ranger, VW Amarok, Nissan Navarra NP 300 and Jeep Wrangler. With these new products we now have one of the widest ranges of off-road tires on the market and can equip virtually any SUV for off-road outings.”

In the Grabber X³, the American tire brand has developed an SUV/all-terrain model for both on- and off-road use. The emphasis, though, is clearly on off-road applications with an 80/20 off-/on-road weighting. To help them meet demanding specifications, the development engineers at General Tire came up with three main technologies: Extreme Mud (X Mud) for maximum traction in deep mud, Extreme Dirt (X Dirt) for driving on gravel, and Extreme Rock (X Rock) for mastering rocky terrain. The Grabber X³ is available for 15- to 20-inch rims, while all sizes of this off-road specialist are approved for speeds of up to 160 km/h.
