After nearly three decades in hiatus, General Tire is back in the battlefield of desert racing and taking names in the process. It all started when Continental Tire North America acquired the General brand and revitalized it with the hopes of capturing additional market share in the competitive light truck tire segment. As such, Continental made significant investments in both manufacturing ability and compound technology. The plan was simple: develop a tire that wins races, and then work backwards to tame it down for public consumption. While the new Grabber may have the DNA of a desert-racing thoroughbred, we assure you that the tire also works well in other venues. Purposeful attributes such as staggered stone deflectors on the sidewalls work together with special high-strength steel belts to increase the Grabber's puncture resistance. The technology is coined by the phrase "Duragen Technology" as seen on the sidewall.
