Owners most often praise the Landsail LS588 UHP for its low road noise, value for money and dry grip. Ride comfort also earns consistent praise. Wet grip gets more positive than negative comments, although around one in eleven owners criticise it. Tread life is often rated well by owners with more miles on the tyre, but some report shorter life. Around one in seven owners find the steering vague or slow to respond, while a similar proportion praise its feel. Around one in eleven report punctures or poor resistance to damage.

very very noisy tyres. you wouldn't mind much in city driving but once you take it to the highway you will cry. i drive according to the speed limit but even at 100kmh the sound is really really really annoying.

excellent tyres at budget price

I got this with the car and never would have bought chinese tyres myself - so the first though was that the noise is bad and when I got driving on high way the noise went to really bad.
Dry grip is ok but wet grip during heavy rainfall felt like dangerous.
Hi, they're not good, after passing 100 km/h howls in the car. I've been to a few service to find out the problem. THIS TYPE OF TIRES ARE NOT GOOD, I DO NOT RECOMMEND
I have these 255/35/R18 for the rears and 234/40/R18 for the fronts. My car is not particularly powerful but after changing to these tires, I was surprised that the rear tires could squeal from stand start. I never could have done this previously, the car being an auto tranny and all.
And now I have learnt how to drift, as any little throttle input on bends during some rain will cause my car to over steer. It's fun but bloody dangerous in real world applications. Let's not even begin on aquaplaning, I had to drive about 50km/h during a heavy downpour along a highway as the car was aquaplaning, not on puddles but large volumes of water on the road. I have never experienced this before.
Maybe this is only applicable to fatter tires like mine. But I must say, comfort is good and the tires are wearing out evenly really well. And these things are really really cheap. A quarter of the price I had to pay for entry level UHP tires from known brands.
But the reason I'm writing this is that I'm getting it changed tomorrow with 70% tread left. I can't take it anymore. Btw, I'm gonna get some Michelin PS4s. Enough of being a cheapo and risking my life on it.
I was in two minds about buying these tyres but have been pleasantly surprised. Nice and quiet, predictable handling from the front and back, and great overall grip
If you drive in a moderate fashion you will be more than pleased. They are not a performance tyre but do everything well, especially given the price.
I took my XF across Germany through some pretty bad rain conditions throughout and the tyre performed well at motorway speeds. Even with considerable standing water at 60 - 70mph there was no hint of aquaplaning.
I would definitely buy again. They are not a million miles off a good mid range tyre and the construction quality is high for a budget tyre.
Had these on my car when i bought it, one fitted 20 months ago the other 13 months ago, was getting a vibration of them, thought it was balance problem, only to find the drivers inner tyre was pretty much a full bulge in the side wall, and the passenger had 2 bulges too. I dodge potholes etc so would know if i hit a bad one to cause this, so these bulges have appeared from normal driving on normal roads
Very dangerous! I drive a a5 v6 tdi quattro so can't say bout grip but find the bulges seriously worrying especially since the tyres only had 8-9000 miles on them

I am a tyre snob and have always kept to the brand of tyre that were on the car eg Pirelli/Michelin etc. I bought a two year old Audi Q5 from an Audi dealership and didn't pay much attention to the tyres, assuming they were high end.
When it come to replacing them I found they were Landsail LS588, something I wouldn't have bought by choice. The truth is though that they have been absolutely fine and considering they are 50% the cost of an alternative I've stuck with them.
Two years on I have no regrets and will buy them again. The fronts have lasted 1 year and 35,000 miles so can't complain
I would happily recommend

Bought these after world reviews said it was a strong buy, this had a stage 3 chip 300 + BHP now back to 231 with 500 nm on tap in standard form both versions was no sweat for these tyres the only thing was they were a bit slippy from brand new fitted around 60 miles later they were fine.
Why buy expensive when these are around, stay in rural Angus but not had deep snow yet but it handled 3 inches like a winter tyre last March no problem also very surprised in black ice performance, tyre wear around 1mm for a 530d that's insane!
was £60 fitted per corner now £67 and I don't care why buy worse performance for over twice the price final point is, winter tyres maybe slightly better but unless telling your insurer its going to cost you 2/3 times more so why bother it's not worth the hassle guys also noted cars with small width don't seem to review as well as fast cars with wider rims so bigger profiles its a great buy! Bad thing about good reviews means prices will go UP!
