Default General Tires?

Anyone have experience with the General G-Max RS tires? Going to dump the Mich run flats before long and looking at different tire options. Its just a weekend toy, no racing... 2001 M6... all bone stock.

Thanks

Put General G-MAX AS-05G Ultra High Performance All-Seasons on both my C5’s last summer after purchasing them. So far so good. Ditched both sets of run flats. The ride now is much smoother than with the run flats. Here in Western Pa our roads are not the best and these tires are excellent. Best of luck.
