To achieve OE approval, tyres are subjected to an extensive and rigorous test and development process to ensure that all of the vehicle manufacturer’s requirements are met – encompassing ride refinement, comfort, handling, rough road durability and noise. “This has helped make the Grabber AT3 one of the most popular choices in the replacement tyre sector, as it is renowned for outstanding all-round performance, durability and value for money.” “The General Grabber AT3 has won numerous independent tyre tests, with exemplary performance in all driving conditions, from dry and wet roads to harsh off-road terrain,” Buday adds. “This signifies the confidence and trust the OEMs have in the performance, safety and quality of our tyres. “Our locally produced tyres have significant penetration in the important OE segment, as we supply most of the local original equipment manufacturers with our leading-edge Continental and General Tire products,” Buday says. “The General Grabber has been the tyre of choice for the Isuzu bakkie range for the past seven years, and we are proud to have our current Grabber AT3 selected as OE fitment for all 18-inch tyres on the all-new Isuzu D-MAX once again,” says Martin Buday, MD of Continental Tyre SA. The even more capable Grabber AT3 replaced the Grabber AT on the Isuzu line-up in 2020 – an association that continues with the latest version of this popular vehicle, which is assembled at the Isuzu Motors SA plant, also located in Gqeberha.
