Halfords FY25 results continue previewed trajectory; Autocentres sales dip

Halfords Group plc has reported a robust financial performance for the 52 weeks ended March 28, 2025 (FY25), with underlying profit before tax (PBT) exceeding expectations at £38.4 million, a 6.4 per cent increase from £36.1 million in FY24. However, the Autocentres division, which accounts for 40 per cent of group revenue, saw revenue drop from £715.7 million in 2024 to £710.3 million in 2025. Nevertheless, like-for-like sales increased 3.7 per cent, driven by strong performance in Service, Maintenance, and Repair (SMR) services and despite a challenging tyre market. In other words, SMR work is offsetting the decline in tyre replacement work.

All-season tyre test – ADAC encounters wide performance gulf

Some tyre tests are a lot like infant school sports days, with everybody receiving kind words and a pat on the head. But not all tyres deserve such generous treatment, and that’s why the latest ADAC all-season test is a breath of fresh air. While the motoring association praises four of the 16 tested tyres as ‘good’, it strongly cautions against no less than four other products.

Iran’s tyre business was growing before the bombs dropped

It is too early to say whether or not President Trump’s decision to order US B2 bombers to pre-emptively strike nuclear sites across Iran will impact the tyre business, but in the month before the bombs dropped, there were signs of significant growth in the domestic Iranian tyre sector.

Goodyear tyre strategy to empower close BTCC racing at Oulton Park

Goodyear says that tyre strategy will be important as the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) heads to Oulton Park for rounds 13-15 of the championship this weekend. The circuit is one of the most demanding on tyres on the calendar, as drivers face the undulating Cheshire track’s blind corners. Drivers will be allocated three sets of Goodyear’s soft compound tyres and one set of the hard compound this weekend. Drivers may also choose to use up to two sets of carryover tyres from previous events, but the medium compound, which is expected to be the more popular carryover choice for this event, is only allowed to be used in FP1 and FP2.
