Atturo Trail Blade Boss Mud Terrain LT37X12.50R17 - Walmart Sale

[Brumasterm]

Last week I picked up a new set of Atturo Trail Blade Boss Mud Terrain LT37X12.50R17 from Walmart and paired them up with a set of wheels.

Currently, they are on sale for $280/tire:

It seemed like a good deal, so I thought I would share the link, a couple of picks and my initial experience.

Anxious to put the tires to the test, my son and I set out and spent the weekend winter camping Holcomb Valley, California. Last week's rain and snow left our Southern California mountains an icy, snowy, muddy mess. The mountain pass on 3N16 coming from Coxey Truck Trail was rutted out with axle deep snow with mud and ice underneath. The tires performed flawlessly. Never felt the need to air down. They just chewed through all that mess and left the ground looking like a tractor had plowed through. The campground was virtually empty other than another group of hardcore Jeepers. Mother nature seemed to have sorted out all the Tacos and Broncos. Of course , we had to face the inevitable minefield as we exited the valley descending into Big Bear City.

My initial impression is quite positive. Love the aggressive look. Performed well in adverse conditions(at least for SoCal).

Time will tell if indeed this was a good deal. Fingers crossed.

Update:
I decided to purchase a matching Atturo spare after Extreme Terrain shipped a random 33" tire instead of the open box used Ironman 37". I had read that the Ironman would fit in the spare tire carrier.

I had also read a post that the Atturo would fit. Well, it definitely does not. Not even close aired down to 20 PSI and I don't have a trailer hitch. Upon further investigation. The post was referring to the Atturo 37 XT.

So, whatever I may have saved on this tire has now be spent on a Clayton Track Bar.

Eh, I wouldn't get too hung up on the cost of the Clayton Rear track bar. I'm on a set of Yokohama Geolander G003 MT's, and I had the factory rear track bar with the 37's for a few weeks.

While it did technically fit, it was rubbing on the tread on the rear tire. I didn't want the risk of dropping the rear sway bar on some extreme articulation, and having it come back up and "pinch" the spare into the body of the truck.

The Clayton Rear bar fixed that issue, and I have plenty of clearance.

I really wish you the best with those tires. I have nothing good to say about Atturo tires. I had 3 tires runout before 20k on my 2018 Silverado before finally dumping them. Hopefully your luck is better than mine.

These are aggressive mud tires with no tread life warrantee. I'd be happy with 30K, but not so much at 20K. I've never experienced excessive tire runout. I'll need to keep an eye out for it. How did you know? vibration? unable to balance?

Also, did you have same size tire and tread pattern on your Silverado?

I had the XTs when they first came out. Agressive looking hybrid tire. I had them in a 33x12.5r20, one of those cool looking people. At least I leveled the truck and didn’t squat it ?
I could no longer balance them and the vibrations were rattling my fillings out of my teeth lol.

Good looking tires and wheels right there. I would have pulled the trigger on those too.

I get it. I'd bench Atturo too after 3 strikeouts in four at bats.

You must have had a better tire shop to figure that out. Took walmart 2+ hours to install mine and i was the first one in and first out. Lots of head scratching and finger pointing.

Thank you. Part of me really misses that truck, but I bought it new for 29k, drove it for 2 years/72k miles and sold it for 24k so it was a no brainer to get rid of it.

My local tire shop is really good, I’ve never had any complaints with them. When they did the alignment, the wheels wouldn’t fit on the rack because they were 12” wide, so the owner swapped wheels with his stock wheels on his personal Escalade, did the work then swapped my wheels back on. I wouldn’t expect that from Walmart lol

They were the type that would actually pop the bead and rotate the tires to find the sweet spot so they didn’t require much for balancing. When I found a spare tire at another shop I swear the guy just threw 4 1/2lbs of weights all over the rim to get it to zero out ?

Clayton track bar received and installed. Bravo Northridge4x4.com! Ordered it Thursday night, received it today.

Zero, you were right. It wasn’t happy going up there, but plenty of room between the trackbar and tire now.

I'm finally getting around to adjusting my tire size using the JSCAN app. I had blown out my transmission and it spent 3+ weeks at the dealer waiting for a new one.

Is there anyone out there that is running these tires and has re-calibrated your tire size? If so, what value did you use? I am hoping to get close without re-adjusting it 10 times.

After a year with these tires, what is the verdict? How is the treadwear? The noise? The vibration? The wet traction on the road? Were they a good purchase, or will you be looking elsewhere when you replace them?

Alas, after 20-25K miles these tires are now need replacement. The daily commute has won the battle. I had been diligent in tire rotation. I probably have rotated them 4 times with each wheel spending some time at the passenger front right hand side. Over the past several thousand miles I have dropped the air pressure from 37 cold PSI down to around 33-35 PSI in an effort to get more wear towards the outer treads.

I had no practical way to rotate with the spare since it is on a different rim. So now i have 1 perfect spare, that will now only ever be used as a spare.

For offroad they I have no complaints, never seemed to lack any traction. I used them for mostly desert rock crawling. The tires do bare the scars of these trips but no flats or deep gouges beyond the treads.

Recent milage puts me around 12.5-13MPG.

The tires are louder, but its a mud tire. No more than I would have expected

Doesn't rain much California, so I really cant comment how they handle in the rain.

I will pass on the Atturo Trail Blade Boss Mud Terrain. I will likely also pass on Mud Terrain tires all together. I don't want to be shelling out another $1.2-1.4K in another 24 months. Likely XT type tire.

If I had any common sense, I'd downsize to 35s. But I seriously lack common sense.
