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 didn't expect too much for this budget cheap tyre but after using it for a year i think this is one of the best budget tyre available in the market. Driving in wet road conditions with confidence and feel better than any mid range branded tyre.

Used on my e39, my proton preve, my myvi, all with sport A1. no complaint and argue. no issue on wet grip, not like other budget tyre (achilies etc). Dry grip not that superb, but up to path, should get a credit. for comfort quite soft of the sidewall, but tyre noise acceptable. will buy it agian. no doubt.

Certainly not the best tire of all, but it performed well as the best budget tire for this size. Wear out fast, having to know it only has 7-8mm thread depth to start with. Grip is okay, but not to push hard on extra hot tarmac (certainly not for track use) and running water. Also be cautious as they prone to bulging due to inner thread break. So you may need to take note and monitor the tire condition after emergency braking, harsh cornering or frequent rough surface travelling. Other than that, i will buy this tire again.

Surprisingly the tires are good for its value. Budget tires but they perform almost as good as the well known brand. It made me think I was driving a premium tires and I expect it to perform even better. Of course there is a limit when I pushed it hard around Genting Highland. It is not going to perform as good as a Michelin PS3 but for a RM120 budget tire it performs good enough. Dry and wet it performs just as good as its value. Quite love this tire being cheap and comfy and also its not noisy. I would say it is reasonably good tire. I must admit, this tire performs better than Silverstone M3 and Dunlop J5 which were in my family’s cars. Those tires are noisier even when driving just over 40kmh. But the Rovelo A1 just beats them in terms of price and performance. Impressive!
