Let's face it, tires are an extremely important aspect of every vehicle. They are what allows our vehicles to get from point A to point B in comfort and then also allows us to get through the trail when off-road. So when we choose a tire, we are wanting something that can handle all of our needs. Design is also important when picking a tire out, and when we saw the Atturo Trail Blade BOSS tires at SEMA a couple years ago, we knew the design was perfect for our Jeep, but what about the rest; handling, off-road prowess and for getting us from A to B in comfort.

We have been testing the newly released 35x13.5 r15 BOSS tires for a little over a month now and we can just say, we are quite impressed with how these tires have responded. The BOSS tires, with their 3 ply sidewalls are designed to handle the toughest terrain. The tread is based on the Quartermaster QSA-1 BOSS HOG knife blade. The center tread uses the kurki style knife blade leaving some deep channels to pull you through the thickest mud or hardest rocks. The sidewalls also contain the knife blade and handle design giving the tire a very aggressive look. This tire isn't here to just look pretty, it's ready to play hard! Street
Luckily we received the tires just in time to take the Jeep up to the 11th annual Crawl 4 Christ in Disney, OK. The rocks at Disney have been known to chew tires up. So we were interested to see how these tires would hold up to the abuse. We aired the tires down to 10 lbs and hit the rocks. These tires laughed at the rocks and gripped like there was no tomorrow. The softer rubber compound of these tires conformed to the rocks to give some amazing grip. We did a couple big climbs with the tires, including a waterfall that made the rocks slippery, the BOSS tires made it seem easy. These tires were made for the abuse of the rocks. Disney was unable to tear chunks out of these tires but you can see it left its mark.
