So these few days i have been testing and drifting my car in empty roads. And i must say, i expected too much from these rovelo sport a1.
Before i bought this, i look at the tyre ratings and also reviews. A lot of positive feedback hence the reason why i bought it.

Asking ktards which tire recommended for best dry grip?

For my case;

Standing full acceleration, really floor it (although i rempit, i rarely floor 100%).
Dry straight road.
1st gear - no grip all the way.
2nd gear - no grip and sometimes half grip but car skidding.
3rd gear - finally have grip but once over 6k rpm, can feel the tires loosing grip.

Rolling full acceleration.
Dry straight road.
1st gear - no grip no matter which speed/rpm i floor it.
2nd gear - half grip skidded a bit below 6k rpm. Once above 6k rpm car loosing grip.
3rd gear - have grip below 6k rpm. Once over 6k rpm can feel tires loosing grip.

And the rovelo sport a1 ratings and feedback are good. These feedbacks give me too much expectation for the tires lol.

Cheap tires.


People tokok good...promote...end up fakap tire coz they don't drive like.performance.car. like that acchilis atr tire

Sidewall no reinforcement and can tear off....if drift...the tire start to melt....but people tokok alot and hype it up


To me...cheap and good atleast is assymetric by good year.

Could it be that your suspension is too hard on a bumpy road?

riding on kayaba stock absorber only.
I actually suspect my suspension too soft. So when accelerate the front of the car lifted up causing no grip.

Just 2 days ago I changed my Bridgestone tyres to Pirelli Powergy. I do satisfied with the performance of Bridgestone, but I do hope those Pirelli will perform on par or better. The shop before that did offer me another brands they said good. But I dont believe in Dayton, Firestone, GT Radial & Silverstone that he quote me. I know its cheaper..

That could be it also. Car suspension can adjust rebound and damping right? Maybe you can tweak and retest it afterward. Rugi if change tyre too often
