GT Radial Maxtour Tires

For most drivers of sedans, minivans, coupes, and crossovers, all-season tires make the most sense. They offer a great balance of versatile year-round traction, a quiet and forgiving ride, predictable handling, and great wear properties. It’s even better if they’re designed with a focus on ride quality, road manners, and low noise, putting them into the Grand Touring category of tires.

GT Radial tires are made by Giti, a Singapore-based tire manufacturer that’s been around since 1951 and now boasts a worldwide manufacturing and distribution network. GT Radial delivers premium-quality tires and performance at an affordable price. With low rolling resistance, a refined ride, all-season performance, and generous limited manufacturer’s tread life coverage, their Maxtour tires represent a great value for drivers. Let’s look at what GT Radial has to offer with their Maxtour tire family.

GT Radial Maxtour LX

The GT Radial Maxtour LX is designed for near-luxury levels of low noise and ride quality; GT Radial’s noise/vibration/harshness team designed it with a tread pitch that’s randomized and computer tuned to neutralize certain frequencies and overtones for an incredibly hushed ride on the highway. The Maxtour LX delivers versatile year-round traction with an all-season tread pattern that includes circumferential and angled grooves that efficiently route water away from the tire’s contact patch to resist a tendency toward hydroplaning on wet roads. Its silica-rich tread formulation is designed for enhanced wet-weather grip (earning it the M+S certification for mud/snow traction) and excellent wear properties; GT Radial covers the Maxtour LX with a best-in-class 70,000 mile limited manufacturer’s tread life warranty.

GT Radial Maxtour All Season

The Maxtour All Season is designed for the same kind of refined ride quality, low noise, and stable road manners as the Maxtour LX, but with more of an emphasis on all-season performance. The Maxtour All Season’s sipe design is enhanced to multiply the tread’s surface area and traction with hundreds of thin edges that slice through slush and standing water, and the system of circumferential, angled, and lateral grooves does an excellent job of evacuating water from the footprint to mitigate hydroplaning. Its full-depth sipes are molded deep into the tread’s surface to continue enhancing traction even as the tread depth wears down. Like the Maxtour LX, the Maxtour All Season features Harmonically Optimized Pitch Sequencing, with the tread pitch computer-tuned to negate road noise and overtones for the life of the tire. GT Radial stands by the Maxtour All Season with a 60,000 mile limited manufacturer’s tread life warranty.

Other GT Radial Maxtour tires

In addition to the above tires, the GT Radial Maxtour family of tires also includes the: The GT Radial Maxtour line also includes the Maxtour, which takes the great features of the Maxtour All Season and Maxtour LX, and then optimizes them for wear properties; the Maxtour is covered by an 80,000 mile limited manufacturer’s tread life warranty.
