We Sell More Tire Brands Than Can Be Listed — General Tire Is One of Them
Southern KY Tire Pros sells and installs General Tire tires at 1004 Happy Valley Rd in Glasgow — including the Grabber lines for trucks and SUVs and AltiMAX lines for cars. If your size is not on the shelf, we can usually get it through our distributors, most of what you can find online included, and often for a better price installed.
Prices move with the distributors and depend on your exact size, so General Tire pricing here is by phone: call (270) 861-2003 or text (270) 320-7359 with your size off the sidewall — it reads like 265/70R17 — and we will quote the tire mounted, balanced, and out the door.
November manufacturer rebate: up to $100 back on qualifying General Tire products, November 1–30, 2026. Ask us at the counter which models qualify before you buy.
Every set we sell is mounted and Road Force balanced in-house, and rotations are free with any tire purchase from the shop. Our 3-year road hazard warranty — with free flat repairs and free balancing — can be added at the counter. And because alignments are a specialty here (Hunter Hawkeye Elite, 18,000-lb rack, starting at $89.99 on most vehicles), a new set can be lined up in the same visit.

Grabber Capability, AltiMAX Manners
General Tire has been an American brand since 1915, born in Akron and owned by Continental since the late 1980s — which means the value line shares a roof with one of Germany's engineering giants. The truck side is all Grabber: the A/TX is the all-terrain flagship, severe-snow rated and built for trucks that split time between pavement and pasture; the HTS60 covers highway-driven pickups that want comfort first; and the X3 is the mud-terrain for drivers who mean it.
Car and crossover drivers get the AltiMAX family, led by the RT45 touring tire that has built a following on long tread life for sensible money. There is a dedicated winter in the AltiMAX Arctic 12 for the few local drivers who run a seasonal set. General's positioning is not mysterious — proven designs, honest ratings, and a price that leaves room in the budget for the alignment the new tires deserve — and it executes that brief well.
The Sweet Spot for Smart Money in Barren County
When a Glasgow driver says they want a good tire without paying for a famous name's advertising, this is usually where the conversation lands. Grabber A/TXs go out of here on hunting trucks and farm pickups constantly, and the RT45 is the default answer for a Camry or Accord that needs to be safe in the rain for the next several years. Because the distributor network behind the brand is deep, odd sizes are often easier to source here than in the premium lines.
Fitting is the full shop treatment regardless of the tire's price: mounted on equipment that protects the wheel, Road Force balanced, and rotated free at every interval when the set came from us. The road hazard option adds three years of free flat repairs and balancing, and we would rather check your alignment on install day than sell you a second set early — premium honesty at a value brand's price is the whole point of this page.
General Tire Questions, Answered Straight
Is the November rebate still available?
Through November 30, 2026, qualifying General purchases can earn up to $100 back from the manufacturer. The Grabber and AltiMAX lines both feature in the program depending on model — check with us before you buy so your exact tire is confirmed eligible.
Is the Grabber A/TX rated for snow?
Yes — the A/TX carries the three-peak mountain snowflake for severe snow service, on top of its all-terrain tread and studdable design heritage. For Kentucky's slush-and-ice pattern it is one of the better year-round truck choices at its price.
Is General Tire just a budget brand?
It is a value brand, which is a different thing: the parent company is Continental, the designs are current, and the savings come from positioning rather than corners cut. The RT45's tread-life reputation among commuters was earned over years, not launch weekends.
Grabber HTS60 or A/TX for a truck that tows a boat?
If the truck's off-pavement life is ramps and gravel lots, the HTS60 rides quieter and wears longer doing it. The A/TX earns its tread when the truck also hunts, farms, or runs muddy access roads. Either handles a boat fine — the difference is where else the truck goes.
