About

General Tire is Continental-owned and engineered for North American driving — Calgary potholes, BC mountain runs, and Deerfoot commuting. We stock the Altimax 365AW (all-weather), Altimax Arctic 12 (studded winter), Altimax RT45 (all-season), and Grabber H/TS60 (SUV all-season) at 111 42 Ave SW. Why we recommend General in Calgary General Tire was founded in 1915 in Akron, Ohio and acquired by Continental in 1987. They benefit from Continental's German engineering pipeline while being positioned for North American value-conscious buyers. The Altimax 365AW is the General all-weather (3PMSF) — meets Alberta's winter-tire law year-round, comparable to Bridgestone WeatherPeak or Michelin CrossClimate2 at a noticeably better price. We install it often on sedans and crossovers for Calgary drivers who want one tire all year. For dedicated winter, the Altimax Arctic 12 is studdable — built for serious cold-Canadian conditions. For trucks and SUVs, the Grabber H/TS60 handles daily highway runs and weekend gravel. Every General we install gets the same balance, calibrated torque, and TPMS reset as our premium-priced jobs — and we price-match local Calgary competitors. Book installation or call (403) 452-4283 .
