Rovelo Sport A1 Owner Reviews

Review this tyre

What owners say summarised from 25 reviews

Owners of the Rovelo Sport A1 most often praise dry grip and value, with wet grip also more frequently liked than criticised. Comfort attracts several favourable comments, but road noise is divided, with complaints from around one in five owners. Later-use wear reports are equally mixed, ranging from satisfactory service beyond 40,000 km to quicker wear than expected. Two owners raise concerns about aquaplaning, although another reports no problem in standing water. Most reviews describe the tyre after some use, but there are no repeat reviewers and no consistent pattern of grip or noise changing with age.

I've been using these same tyres since 2021, so good in grip and last..just mild wear..that not enough? I'm a runner..going back and forth from Ipoh-Klang Valley-KL..its quite noisy but I don't mind coz they said this is performance tyre but still comfortable for long distance and duration drive (pro tip:don't turn too much during stationary if you want it to last longer it scratch quite easily)

30k km on the clock, this tyre wears significantly fast, abrasion is obvious even the tread wear rating is A and tread is 340. Very noisy on the road and uncomfortable drive all times. While dry grip is ok, on wet it’s not that impressive and you shouldn’t compare it with any good brand out there.
The tyre looks very dry after 3 years of driving which you can’t find on other tyres.
Not an aggressive driver and mostly in town.
If you are trying to save on cost buying budget tyre like this, you will end up spending more buying new tyres faster than you can imagine, if you care for your safety of course.
I don’t believe that the rubber compound is of a good quality at all.
I definitely won’t buy this tyre aging and I don’t advise anyone to buy it, you get what you pay for getting such a cheap tyre, risking your own safety and your family safety.

Bought my car that came fitted with rovelo A1. Were doubtful at first as never used and unheard of. After using i find it very good enough for the price one is paying. Don't drive too fast and find it great for city driving. The downside for me is the treadware as it seems to wear off a lilttle too fast to my liking. The other is suspected aquaflying during wet so be careful not to go too fast during wet days. Other then that, will definitely repurchase and recommend to others which are into normal driving with very affordable price and performance. Cheers

I had one of these fitted due to an unrepairable original tyre. Old stock so the tyre looks tarnished and had untrimmed rubber around the edges. For a budget tyre these are acceptable to fit but don't look attractive even with the sidewalls armouralled.

I guess you get what you pay for, these have a terrible sidewall and as such cause the car to track all over the place, especially under braking. Easily aquaplanes at 100km/hr and the feedback is quite dead. I have them on the front of my Lexus IS250 which is not a powerful car but I'll be changing them before long as they aren't very safe.
