Dry grip and quiet running are the most frequent positives for the Landsail LS388 AS, with value and comfort also attracting praise. Twenty-five of 49 written reviews are positive, but the average score is a more mixed 60.8%. Wet grip divides opinion exactly, with 11 favourable comments and 11 complaints, some describing loss of traction in ordinary damp driving. Longer-term reviews more often praise tread life than criticise it, although handling and steering feedback are evenly divided. Around one in eight reviews raises pressure loss or sidewall problems, including accounts of bulges or failures, making durability a reservation alongside the inconsistent wet-grip experience.

Have these tires fitted to car a while ago.
After 4000 miles the tire had a blowout not to mention the cracking and what felt like the tires no longer being round anymore.
If you value your life and safety please consider a better tyre.
Had this on Prius, was 2 years old when I got them. Always loosing pressure, went to several service, could not figure out why. Other than that it was not that bad

Had LS388s on my used car for nearly a year, they handle perfectly well in all weather, and at no point have I felt that they'd lost traction or had any problems with them. As my car isn't very fast I cannot speak for higher end vehicles. But on my Yaris they have been brilliant.
The tread lasts a very long time.

Driving Ford Kuga. Bought these because of price and sound. Original tyres noisy. LS388 very quiet. Surprisingly no problems att all on wet rainy roads. Very good grip overall. I should probably use LS588 on this car but I feel quite comfortable with LS388 instead. For off road or 99% gravel road I would probably choose something else.
I like it in general. BUT, they keep leaking I have to inflate them every 10 days, I am 100% sure there is no puncture and have been re-fitted 4 times by 4 different garages, the alloy wheels are new. I am not the only person complaining the leaking problem.
Although it is made in mainland China, it is actually quite excellent in use and has a very high level of noise performance. Although the grip on dry ground (sudden braking) is not so ideal, it is definitely no problem in normal driving. The rain is good, cheap and good
Fitted them on my 05 Kia Picanto 1.1
Pros: Cheap, £29 a corner fitted. Still have 3mm after 7k miles, it is better than expected.
Cons: Lack of grip in both dry and wet, I would not expect much on a £29 tyre, but I do not feel safe driving my car in wet on these LS388.
I wouldn't recommend these tyres, should have spent more to get a better one.
Not very impressed with these done 12000 miles will not buy again,,,,

Put these on the front of an Astra at 48k miles, now getting near at 66k so about 20k on the front must be fairly ok. Quiet when new and I havnt noticed they get noisy when older (which some tyres definitely do). I don't push the car or tyres hard so have found them very good given my driving style. A really quite good average tyre with no nasty surprises IME.
Very impressed with these tyre had 2 fitted and can't fault them would recommend to anyone great tyre great price just hope the prices don't rise to much as I would buy again. Never really been one for budget tyre cause of bad experiences with them. But can not fault the landsail good grip. Quiet on the road and good price running them on the back of a merc c220 saloon
A set of Landsail LS388 tyres cane already fitted to my car. They had about 3mm tread left and were evenly worn and when I changed them that had covered 19,000 miles. These tyres are noisy! I hadn’t realised just how loud they were until I swapped to equally noise rated Continentals (71db) and suddenly felt as if I had lost my hearing the difference is so noticeable. Wet grip is poor at lower temperatures, and snow grip is non existent. One of the Landsails when taken off had a split running between the long wide grooves and could have blown out at any minute. I would buy buy these tyres.
Had them on the car 3 years and did 45,000 miles on them. Unbelievable wear, all even and never a puncture until recently. The only reason i replaced them is because the puncture was on the edge and not worth a repair. I have indeed used them again.
