Had a pair of these on the rear axle for just over a year and covered 15000 miles I tow a caravan and a trailer so they have had abit of work to do! On inspection last week they still have 6.5mm of tread so wear seems very good, they are quiet and grip in all conditions. Having always stayed clear of "cheap" rubber I can honestly say that these are as good as the Goodyears they replaced and at half the cost are in my opinion an absolute bargain! I have just put a pair on the front axle so hope for same results.

Recommended by my local retailer as a good value budget tyre for my vehicle. First 5000 miles, good, fairly quiet, and no problems. After this, despite running rear pressures a just above cold tyre minimum limit, started to see serious wear down middle section of tyre. Got progressively worse to 10,000 miles, and now the rears need replacing after just 13000 miles as they have 2mm in the middle, and 4mm on edges. In last month, the fronts have started to hum and send small vibration through steering wheel, and dealership says outside tread blocks are starting to step, even though still over 4mm on tyre. With a tyrewear rating of 500, was expecting these tyres to last 30000 miles+, but clearly they can't handle the weight of the vehicle. At a loss as to what to put on next, as I hear different stories about tyres from different dealers, but it certainly wont be these. Even at £80 each, they are not good value based on the mileage you get from them.

I had these fitted to my 2011 Audi S4.I was having a few monetary issues so had to go with a lesser brand as i needed new rubber.
My car is highly tuned & over 500HP/440FtLb.
Initially I was a little worried as they felt very soft & didn't respond well to steering.I then added 10% more air pressure than I would usually use & it transformed the steering response & general feel of the tyre/car.
They are a quite amazing tyre for the crazily small rice you pay for them.Great in wet & dry with ridiculously good braking ability.they are more than capable of keeping the power of my S4 under control (something I was quite pleasantly surprised with)
If yu have these & are not impressed i would suggest upping the pressures to rectify the soft feeling of them

not one to write reviews but thought I should for these tyres ive just changed all four Dunlop's that came with the car to these landsail tyres and they are so quiet ive driven cars for 30 years and these really stand out with hardly any tyre noise and less harsh ride than any ive had before this maybe because there softer rubber not sure how long they will last but I'm well impressed with these budget tyres.

I drove on Pirelli Pzero before. The Landsails are definitely more comfortable and quieter but the handling and grip is worse. For the money they are really good BUT.

I have an annoying vibration from my rear tires. I have had the tires rebalanced twice but the vibration persist! It's incredibly annoying due to pore quality. The rims are Audi oems and didnt vibrate at all with the Pirellis.

I bought these tires two months ago. I use them on a 2.4-liter engine. 220 hp. I've already driven 10,000 kilometers. And I am very satisfied with them. Grip is very good on almost all road types. Fairly good accuracy to a sporty driving style. Very good braking response.
Comfort. The tires are silent. And behaves well in curves, on the road with unevenness, but also on Autobahn 200+ km / h
A very good quality-price ratio.
They are far beyond expectations.

As good as the continentals that were on from new.
Just had a service - the front tyres had done 12000 miles, new they have a 7 ml trye depth, the service checked the tyres and they had 5 ml left, so they should last better than the continental s.
Fitted in my ford galaxy.
A great tyre.

I bought two of these brand new on a well known auction site for 60 quid, 13 postage and 30 to fit them takes us to a grand total of £103 for two 235 40 18. A bargain tyre at that price but how do they compare to the usual premium brands I buy?
The reason I bought these cheap tyres is that im paying for a wedding this year, I thought id get a cheap set to do me until after then.
Day one I was so impressed by how quiet the tyres were, these are super quiet, I have never had a quieter tyre!
Dry performance is every bit as good as the premiums they replaced. Had to wait a few days for rain (surprising in Scotland).
In the rain i booted it off my favourite round about and again very surprised by the grip!
I bought these because I was on a budget but I will be buying a set again when these wear out. Not sure how long they will last, only had them on a month so we will see but overall a very very good tyre at least for 235 40 18 anyway.
Highly Recomended!

I have a played with Audi 1.9 TDI Quattro Avant pushing just over 200bhp. I have always had cars that were not exactly standard and have stuck with the big named brands as I don't hang about and want my cars to go where I point them and stop when I want them to. Now being in my sixties and retired money has become a big factor. So after reading a few reviews I decided to take the plunge and go for these. £250 all in including fitting for five as opposed to £100+ a corner for the Continentals I was running, no contest on price.

Now we have all seen the "Compare the Chinese tyres to our performance tests" The Chinese always come out as rubbish. Not so! I did my own tests. The first was economy. I went to have these fitted by a chap in the Midlands as nowhere stocked them nearer. 60 miles there on Continentals 45 mpg. The return journey I got 49 mpg and that was with the five Conti's in the back. Sold those on ebay for £200 with around 4mm left, I never take my tyres much lower than that before I get rid.

Dry handling. Very good, not quite as sharp as the Conti's for quick changes in direction but close enough, I feel confident on country roads and have not had any handling issues. Brakes. As good as the Conti.s.

Wet handling. The Conti's were good, or so I thought. These hold on better and as to stopping distance. I took the car out at the first opportunity to give it a go. Dumped the pedal on the floor at 40 mph on a clear road, I should have changed to these sooner! They are clearly better.

Wear. At slightly over 5000 I have used 1.2 (Front) 1 millimetre (Rear) so these are on target to beat the Conti's

Winter driving. Can't make a comment on this as I always run winter mud+snow tyres on 16" rims as I do a lot muddy tracks and fields.

Overall. Excellent tyre and will be buying these again.

Bought these tyres as a fix for the winter on my spare set of wheels wasn't bothered about performance as I had no intention of pushing them that said they are ok but lack a little bit of feel on the turn in and are not as sharp as the Pirelli that came off but they are very quiet and comfortable and seem to be wearing ok

They are ok on grass and mud no issues as far as this type of width can be

Having run my car exclusively for the last 3 years on Goodyear Excellence I decided to look around for an alternative? Having looked at products from the leading manufacturers I came across a Finnish tyre test in which the Landsail ls588 uhp had figured well so had a look the tyres were B rated for wet grip, C rated for fuel and 68db for noise. Having always steered clear of cheap rubber I was sceptical but the tyre test results looked good so I decided to take the plunge and buy a pair to replace the rears. I paid £43 each from an on-line seller then £12 valve, balance, disposal etc at my local tyre fitters so £55 all in and a saving of £40 on the Goodyears, having only done 1000 miles on them I can honestly say that there is no noticable difference in dry or wet grip or noise compared to the Goodyears, on the wear its early days but at the price I would'nt mind changing them a few thousand miles sooner! Its nice to see a "budget" brand making a decent tyre so well done.

Used it on Kia Rondo 2.0L EXS, well balanced on dry and wet grip. Quite a comfort yet provide quite amount of grip tire while travelling on any road surface. First try on China made tire, quite satisfied with the built quality and value provided by this tire. It did back by 5 years unlimited mileage limited warranty in Malaysia, this is one of the reason why I will try on this rubber. Best bang of dollar for this, definitely will buy it again.
