General Altimax replaces Hydroedge

I just test drove the Altimax in 60 series yesterday on my 97 standard. They do not make a 65 series.
Replaced the Hydroedge in 65 series. I had about 12,000 miles on the Hydroedge.
I REALLY like the Altimax. Much more like a mc tire. Very little moving around on ruts. My mc tire would also jump around on those ruts some, so hard to tell if more or not. That was on dirt/mud getting to the highway. On the pavement, in town, and on a poor paved road I took on purpose to test, did not notice it jumping AT ALL. My Hydroedge would have some.
About the only difference I noted between it and a mc tire, is that is still takes more input when cornering. But, I would say it is 1/2 or less of the input needed for the Hydroedge.
Nice. I believe I have found a winner. Took it up to 115 indicated, and running good. Scraped pegs in town before I realized I was going to. Nice.

I like my Altimax also. It's a great tire so far after over 10,000 miles.
