All you need to know about tyre types 

Tyres can range hugely in price, performance, and purpose. While budget brands may list tyres for sale starting at around £45, premium brands can cost in the thousands… Generally, tyres tend to fall in the range of about £75-£250, but at Halfords, we recognise that when the price tag applies to each individual tyre, it adds up! That’s why we stock affordable brands like Rovelo and Autogreen, so that you can get back on the road, for a price you can afford. 

Tyres can also differ when it comes to seasonal conditions. Some are designed for summer, others for winter, or you can combine with all-weather tyres. 

What’s the difference between budget and premium tyres? 

Premium tyres typically have considerable investment put into them with their top-quality materials and technologically advanced techniques. As a result, premium tyres often have a higher durability and may offer a smoother driving experience. 

However, budget tyres must adhere to required safety standards and are still generally covered by their manufacturer’s guarantee. As affordable tyres are typically made of a cheaper material, they’re known for needing replacing more often, which can sometimes add up to more than just buying a set of premium tyres! 

So how long do budget tyres really last? 

The longevity of cheap tyres all depends on the driver’s lifestyle and use of their vehicle. An aggressive driver who often hits potholes and takes sharp turns will wear down their tyres quicker than a smooth driver. If you take the steps to protect your budget tyres, they will support you for longer. Avoid overloading your vehicle as this can put excessive strain and heat on your tyres, maintain the tyre pressure with regular checks, and rotate your tyres to even out pressure. 

Are Rovelo tyres any good? 

Rovelo tyres boast reliable road-surface grip through their specifically designed grooves that maximise drainage off the wheel for improved traction. The tread design is also crafted with the intention to distribute pressure equally in all weather conditions for a great driving performance. Users of Rovelo tyres will find a good handling performance as the tyres cater to the driver’s maneuverers. 

Rovelo is part of the larger group Sailun Tyres, who are rapidly growing as one of the leading tyre bands. In fact, Sailun have reached the global top 10 recommended tyre brands – which is a remarkable achievement!  

Our Rovelo tyres come at a range of prices so that we can be even more flexible for our customers. The RHP-780 comes in as the cheapest tyre with 4 main groves for an optimal wet performance and drainage, while our all-weather R4S tyre sits at a higher price but with specifically designed patterns for an excellent driving experience, whatever the weather. The inner pattern benefits handling in snowy, icy, and rainy conditions while the outer pattern performs excellently in handling and stability on dry road conditions.
