Patio

Is anyone familiar with those rubber tiles that are newer and used for patios? My husband and I purchased 24x24 squares that are about 1 1/2 inches thick and are going to make a 12x12 patio out of them. We arent sure how to prep the area underneath since they arent stone or brick there isnt much info out there. We were thinking of digging down in the grass 1 inch and 3/4 and then filling with 1 inch of gravel. We are planning on putting the landscaping block over the dirt first. Do you think this is enough so it does not sink? I know generally it is recommended about 4 inches of sand and gravel for the normal patios but since this is not as heavy we were thinking this may be adequate. Any info is appreciated! Thanks!
