These are by far the best budget tyres i`ve had on a car,and they`re better than a lot of the dearer tyres on the market.They are quiet at any speed,the grip in the the dry is really good and so is the wet grip with plenty of feel.Well impressed for £43 each fitted and balanced,I would definately have them again.

Ok in the dry. A hint of moisture and they're hopeless! Not too noisy. Wears quite quickly. Comfortable, sidewalls soft. Wet breaking poor. Avoid.

Bought a bmw 328i this year with these fitted. I've done a couple of track days as well as spirited road driving, for the price wet and dry grip is good and wear rate very good. Never heard of them before but will buy again, well on par with many main stream tyres.

Given 77% while driving a Kia Motors (205/45 R16) on a combination of roads for 15,000 average miles
Bought two of them may last year for my kia rio. Tey were recommended by the garage owner. Well I trusted him and paid 50 quid a corner. Fitted on the front. I was absolutely positivity surprised. It is really first Chinese tyre that actually works. Few months after replaced other two on the back with landsails. With 4 of them fitted I can tell you that the car was behaving very well on dry and wet as well. There is a space for improvement in wet and cornering but you have to drive like lunatic to provoke tyre to missbehave. They worn even and after 10kmiles there was no significant wear on the back, slightly older front circa 15kmiles was half way through. Think I can get 25 kmiles from the front ones and 35kmiles from the back ones.

These tyres are ok in the dry, but hopeless in the wet. So unless you never drive when the road is wet, avoid at all costs!

made the mistake of changing all four tyres at same time, after fitting the noise is incessant and sounds like my bearings have gone, the ride is so hard i had to check that my suspension was in good order as it feels like shock absorbers are shot at but the car is in good order i would not endorse these tyres and will be changing back to my original brand of tyres which gave me no problems at all maxxis

Given 82% while driving a BMW 325i (225/45 R17 W) on mostly country roads for 2,000 spirited miles
I have bought a BMW 325i with these fitted to 3 corners (2 rear +1) I have since covered 2000 miles of mostly fast twisty A roads. I have been quite surprised by their grip especially in the dry. I do like to press on a bit and have not found these tyres lacking in any respect. Unable to give any wear indicators as have not had them long enough.

Given 74% while driving a Jaguar XJ6 (225/45 R18) on a combination of roads for 1,000 average miles
I bought a set of these for my Jaguar xj6 when I put a set of 18" wheels on her at a price of £200 for a set of 4. I was not expecting much! For the first few days I found grip to be bad! But after this once they had a 20-30 miles on them they seemed to improve loads and became a semi decent all-round tire. They are far from the best on the market but for the price they are fantastic at £50 per corner fully fitted and balanced. I drive normally most of the time as I am a family man and have the occasional blast when on my own. I would buy these again. I covered around a 1000 miles on these before I sold the car and the Brand name and tire size molded into tread was still clearly visible leading me to the conclusion that these are a really good hard-wearing tire.

I Had 4 of these fitted by a local tyre shop in Walthamstow N.E London as I had neglected my tyres and was border line with the legal tread!.I had never heard of Landsaill before and wasnt sure if they were for me.The tyre shop has been there for 40 years and the owner assured me they were fine and were a good all round weather tyre.He showed me hes BMW and had them fitted to hes car as well.I saved a good few pounds and think the tyres are as good as any brand named ones I have used in the past!.Tyres were fitted to a Mercedes c220 cdi estate 2004 Reg.

I recently had two rear Landsail tyres fitted to the rear as I could not afford expensive tyres. I'm not sure exactly what size they are but wanted to do a quick review as they are very much a budget tyre from China and when I 'Googled' them there seemed to be a few negative reviews about them not being very good for grip especially in the wet. Perhaps they were trying to use them as track tyres or something as in my experience these tyres seem as good as any others I've had (and while not a racer I'm not a slow driver either - just normal speeds for the road conditions). The grip is good and they give a smooth ride. I even checked with another tyre dealer and they said they are fine and meet all EU standards.
