Kingboss at a glance
Kingboss is a Chinese tyre brand with roots in Shandong province. The region is the centre of China's tyre industry, home to dozens of tyre factories. Little is publicly known about the manufacturer behind the brand. In the US trademark register, the name KING BOSS has been registered since 2018 to Shandong Hongsheng Rubber Technology. Other sources link the brand to other Shandong rubber manufacturers, so there is no single confirmed owner.
Kingboss tyres are made in China and belong to the cheapest price bracket. In Europe they are sold mainly through online shops. Kingboss suits drivers whose main buying criterion is price and who mostly drive in town or at a gentle pace on the motorway. As little is publicly known about the manufacturer, it is worth checking the specific model's EU tyre label and independent test results before you buy.
Kingboss's range in European online shops consists mainly of car summer tyres. The most common models are the G521, G577 and G866. Studded tyres and Nordic-type friction tyres for Nordic winters are not a highlight of Kingboss's European range. If you need winter tyres, check before buying whether a winter model is available in your size.
