    Around this time 2020 I decided to order a set of atturo trail blade xt's for my 2016 tundra. Work had been slow and dropping the money for wildpeaks wasn't happening with Christmas around the corner.
    I figured I could get a year or 2 out of them and get something better.
    Turns out, I got 3 years and 63,000 out of them.
    Initially, I was surprisingly impressed. They were louder than I thought they'd be, but nothing crazy. Wet traction was something I was concerned with, but they held surprisingly well. Honestly better than the ko2's they replaced.
    We had a pretty decent snow hit on Christmas that year, I had no issues getting around while the ditches were full of everything from cars to jeeps, to super duties.
    The only real initial complaint I had, was they were really bad about flat spotting after sitting for a day.
    In the summer, they did away with provided vehicles and pushed us to a vehicle allowance. That meant thousands of hwy miles, mud, rock, occasional snow, and who knows what else I've driven through. Not a single complaint to be had. I have had to have them rebalanced twice, but that's to be expected with a 34" tire. I am more happy with the "cheap" tire than I was with the more than double the cost ko2's I had before.
    About 5-6k miles ago the siping in the tread lugs was worn out which left just flat tread block. That caused some loss of traction in heavier rain, but I still felt safe driving them.

    I was going to get a set of toyos or wildpeaks this go around, but honestly with as much driving as I do for work, I couldn't justify it. I've got a set of the trail blade ats on order to replace the xt's. I started to go back with xt's but as much highway driving as I do, the whine of the xt's started to drive me insane.
    Hopefully it wasn't a fluke and I have good results out those as well.

    That's all very surprising to hear - in a good way. I've heard a mixed bag about the, but you will get that with just about any tire. Glad to hear they worked well for you. Now, as @KNABORES said..

    Well as it turns out, I'm NOT putting atturo ats on to replace the xt's. The morning of my install appointment they called to tell me the tires were on back ordered and had no eta which usually means a wait of greater than 6 months.
    I've got a set of nokian outpost ats on the way that I got for a good price since they were discontinued earlier in the year.

    The attached picture was from last summer when the atturos had about 25k on them. And yes, before anyone says anything, I've gotten rid of the chrome bumper corners. I'd just cleaned plastic dip off and was getting ready to color match them.

    I had Atturo's about 6 years ago on my Tacoma, 33" and could not get them to balance for shit. Tried several times. I think they where out of round. Went to Venoms and all the problems vanished.
