215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring

Category: All Season – Grand Touring

The General Altimax RT45 is a long-lasting, all-season grand touring tire for passenger cars and crossovers. It has responsive handling and reliable braking on wet or dry roads and utilizes Replacement Tire Monitor and Visual Alignment Indicators which aid in detecting tire wear. The Altimax RT45 provides traction year-round including light snow, low road noise, and a long tread life. It also has a 120,000km tread life warranty for H and T rated sizes or 105,000km for V rated sizes.

XL (Extra Load) — built to handle higher inflation pressures and heavier loads than a standard-load tire of the same size.

What these tire specs mean

  • Load index 91 means each tire can carry up to 615 kg. Check your door jamb placard — the tire needs to meet or beat the load rating your manufacturer specifies.
  • Speed rating V is the maximum sustained speed this tire is designed to handle under proper conditions. That works out to 240 km/h under correct load and inflation — not a target, just the rated ceiling.
  • UTQG 700 A A is a manufacturer-assigned grade for treadwear, traction, and temperature performance. Useful for comparing within the same brand — but it’s not a mileage guarantee, and ratings aren’t standardized across manufacturers.
  • All Season tires handle mild year-round conditions well, but they’re not winter tires. In Quebec, a standard all-season doesn’t satisfy the mandatory winter tire requirement unless it specifically carries the 3PMS symbol.
  • XL means Extra Load. These tires run at higher inflation pressures and handle more weight than a standard-load tire of the same size. If your vehicle’s factory spec calls for XL, that’s what you need — swapping to standard load can affect ride, handling, and safety.
  • Vehicle type indicates the service category this tire is built for — passenger car, light truck, commercial, or other. Matching the right category matters for load capacity, handling, and safety.
  • Warranty coverage is backed by the manufacturer and applies under normal use — regular rotations, correct inflation, and proper alignment. Keep maintenance records if you ever need to make a claim.

The 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring is a all season / all season – grand touring tire, built around a 215 mm section width for a 17-inch wheel.

About the 215/45R17 tire size

  • XL (Extra Load) rated — handles higher inflation pressures and heavier loads than a standard-load equivalent.

  • Service description 91V: load index 91 means each tire carries up to 615 kg, speed rating V is rated to 240 km/h.
  • 215/45R17 mounts on a 17-inch wheel.

Common questions — 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring All Season

What does the 215/45R17 tire size mean?

Break it down and 215/45R17 tells you three things: the tread is 215 mm wide, the sidewall stands at 45% of that — about 97 mm of rubber between road and rim — and it fits a 17-inch wheel. You’ll find this size most often on mid size sedans and crossovers.

Is the 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring an All Season tire?

Yes — the 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring is categorized as an All Season tire. Standard all-season tires handle mild year-round conditions but don’t meet Quebec’s mandatory winter tire requirement on their own. If you drive in Quebec between December and March, look at a dedicated winter or all-weather tire that carries the 3PMS symbol.

What does the 91V rating mean on the 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring?

The 91V on the General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring breaks into two numbers: load index 91, meaning each tire carries up to 615 kg, rated to approximately 240 km/h; and speed rating V, rated to 240 km/h under proper load and inflation. Your door jamb placard lists the minimum ratings your vehicle requires — match or exceed both.

Is the 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring 3PMS rated?

No — the General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring doesn’t carry the 3PMS symbol. If Quebec winter compliance or severe snow traction is a priority, you’d want a tire that does.

Is the 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring studdable?

Studdable status is not confirmed for this tire. Reach out and we’ll check the manufacturer specs for you.

Does the 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring support run flat driving?

No — the General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring is a standard tire, not a run flat. If your vehicle came equipped with run flats, your replacement set needs to be run flat-capable too.

Is the 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring an XL (extra load) tire?

Yes — the General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring is XL rated. It’s designed for higher inflation pressures and greater load capacity than a standard-load tire of the same size. If your current tires are XL, your replacement should be too.

What does speed rating V mean on the 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring?

Speed rating V on the General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring corresponds to a maximum sustained speed of 240 km/h under proper load and inflation. In practice, this tells you the performance category the tire is built for — not a number to chase on public roads.

Can I order the 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring with delivery to Ontario or Quebec?

Yes — we ship the 215/45R17 General AltiMAX RT45 – All Season Touring across Ontario and Quebec. Free shipping • 1–3 business days (Ontario and Quebec).
