Event Tyres is one of many smaller budget brands that drivers often aren’t aware of.
And it’s no surprise really, with so many reputable and larger brands offering their wares for varying vehicles, terrains, climates, and journey types.
Of course, budget brands do come at some kind of cost – whether it be a shorter shelf life or a drop in performance. However, what they lack in performance and longevity they often make up for in value for money, and in supporting the basic needs of drivers on the road.
Event Tyres is a budget brand that balances modern design with affordability, to create tyres which are reliable, that boost everyday performance, and that can be used by drivers of SUVs, 4x4s, passenger cars, and more. Here’s our take on the benefits and limitations of Event Tyres, and who these tyre models are well suited to.
Why Are Event Tyres Popular?
Event Tyres was founded in 2005, and ever since day one has combined quality raw materials with leading production processes and technologies from Asia. Recognising Asia as the fastest growing tyre industry in the world, home to countless global brands, the fact that Event Tyres are manufactured here means that they are immediately exposed to some of the best innovations and research facilities on the market.
This is seen in the stability of tyres, their reliability on the roads, and in the sheer versatility of the full range. Despite its budget status, Event Tyres has models that sit in the high-performance tyre category, as well as touring tyre models and everyday commuter tyres. Spanning different vehicles, Event Tyres also has a range of SUV and 4x4-specific tyres, with all terrain and off-road solutions to boost comfort and traction.
The modern design and tread patterns of these tyres means they are well suited to their terrain, while the rigorous testing standards that tyres are exposed to means that drivers can count on their reliability and quality.
And of course, we can’t overlook the price of Event Tyres – which is largely due to the lesser known status of the brand. You often find that budget tyre brands are either cheaply made, or they benefit from high-quality manufacturing and design, with the low price tag coming from the lesser known brand name. Event Tyres falls into the latter category, offering quality at a lower price – and making this a high value for money brand.
What Are the Downsides of Event Tyre Models?
The number one limitation of the Event Tyres brand can be seen in performance under specific conditions and seasonal pressures. Despite having a high-performance range of summer and winter tyres, it’s worth noting that these UHP models do not perform as well when the weather turns and changes – impacting stability and handling.
Accessibility poses another challenge, in so far as finding suppliers that stock and provide Event Tyres to drivers. As a smaller and less prolific brand, these tyres are not as easy to find as bigger brands like Bridgestone, Kumho and Michelin.
Having said all that, because the brand is not as well known – in fact, ask any driver in the UK and the chances are they won’t be familiar with the Event Tyres brand – its pricing strategy remains low even with the limited downsides and overall very positive reviews from users.
