Atturo Trail Blade ATS. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All terrain traction; Self-cleaning tread design; Enhanced controllability; Longer lasting tread life; Better on-road comfort levels; . OVERVIEW: The Atturo Trail Blade ATS is an all terrain, all season tire manufactured for SUVs and light trucks. This model has some commercial van sizes available. Atturo offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty with this tire model.The model improves its all terrain traction. Its tread design features a staggered block placement with four main grooves that work together to increase the soft, loose, and uneven terrain grip. These tread elements optimize the model's overall on- and off-road performance, providing the necessary traction on versatile terrain surfaces. The three dimensional siping pattern also enhances the tire's year round performance. They firmly grip the driving surface in dry, wet and winter conditions, optimizing the tire's overall driving safety levels.This tread design also keeps the footprint clean at all times. The footprint utilizes its stepped block edges, groove placement, and small raised bars to eliminate mud, snow, and rocks stuck between the tread elements. In this manner, mud and snow are unable to pack into the footprint and block its surface contact during the drive. On the other hand, this effectively avoids stone retention. Rocks are ejected from the footprint before they are able to drill into the tread area, significantly boosting the tire's damage resistance.The tie bars located between the shoulder and center tread blocks stabilize the footprint. The optimal footprint stability ensures the tire's surface contact on different conditions, which improves the tire's controllability. This enables the tire to significantly improve the steering responsiveness and the driving stability, guaranteeing the driver's better control over the vehicle. The model also features a reinforced ply construction which keeps the optimal shape. In this manner, the tire is able to securely carry and withstand heavy loads with ease.A lengthened service life is guaranteed. The stronger compound and the stabilized footprint upgrade the tire's tread life length. The durable rubber materials used in the compound effectively combat premature wear with their wear-resistant nature. The tie bars of the tread stabilize the footprint and ensure even pressure circulation. This combination results in the tread's slower and even wear, which greatly improves its usability.The Trail Blade ATS also ensures high driving comfort levels during its on-road performance. The tread design's stability greatly decreases the road noise created. Their stability prevents sound wave formations as they manage to channel airwaves through the footprint. This prevents sound waves from reaching the vehicle's cabin and coming into contact with the tread elements. The result is a quiet and comfortable driving experience as it guarantees the passengers' driving enjoyment. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
