Landsail LS588 UHP

Have had Landsail on a Porsche Boxster s and my previous BMW 325d ,
Had no issues at all. Good value all round tire with good mileage , 25K on rear of BMW. I mostly drive motorway and local A roads. I’m no boy racer , but have found them fine for normal driving. Good price for a sensible guy like me .

The inside contact point with the wheel rim failed leading to complete loss of pressure.
This looks like a material failure.
Tires were fitted 23 months ago and 24,000 miles. We’re wearing well and the car handled well albeit well inside its suspension capacity.
Just about replace the dead and remaining three tires for a better brand.

I've used these on a few of my taxis and for the price can't complain, currently I've 2.5 mil left after 20000 miles.

Hi I drive a Audi A8L 3.0 TDI V6 Quattro.
have had very little issues if any with these tires. do a lot of motorway driving and handles well with winter conditions and summer. whether its the quattro system 4 wheel drive but i haven't come across the problems other revues are saying will buy again when time comes around.
comfort is good wet grip & road noise is except able.

Been running three sets of these tires in 17" and 18" over the years. What I have found after aprox 50000 km is:

Wet grip is excellent when the tires are new, but starts degrading quickly after 10000 km or so. Wet grip becomes very unpredictable after that, and sometimes it's down right scary with oversteer situations out of the blue.

Dry grip is OK. However they are mushy when new due to the soft compound, resulting in a vague feel. Once they wear down to about 60-70% they feel like different tires.

Two of three sets have developed structural issues with the belts separating after wearing down to 40-50%. I would NOT buy these again and I don't advice anyone to buy them. It's a big safety concern. Value isn't great either when they fail before you can wear them down.

I had the opportunity to drive a C5 2l 16v, 150 hp, fitted with Michelin Primacy 3, then Pirelli P7 Blu, then Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance – top-notch grip, but one set of tires in 12 months. I ended up with Landsail 588 UHP, a little less grip than Goodyear, but flawless handling in dry or wet conditions, very even and uniform tire wear. For this, the alignment and tire pressures must always be correct. For a price 2.5 times lower than Michelin, I tested 4 Pirelli P7 Blu, rated A/A/A, grip worse than Landsail. Reaching 70% wear in 18 months, the Pirellis were completely deformed, giving me vibrations in the steering wheel at 120 km/h (atrocious). For me, Goodyear Top Adhesion 12 months costs €160, the best value for money. €80 for 24 months for one tire with very good performance. The calculation is simple and logical. And I would add that to comply with the highway code, you don't need tires capable of 300 km/h. Tire labeling is done by NF and Euro approved centers, not by the tire manufacturers. There are some major Chinese tire manufacturers that are worth or even surpass Michelin, for example: Landsail Sentury, Triangle, Delinte. A word to the wise.

On dry roads, the tire rides comfortably. Smooth, with sufficient feedback, and comfort. However, in the wet, it reaches its limits. Therefore, I recommend the UHP 588 primarily for people who primarily ride in dry conditions.

Purchased these mainly because of the price. I needed 2 new tires and these were priced well. I had used Landsail LS388 on a previous car and they were pretty good. The 588 however weren't as good for pulling away, they gave a fair amount of slip under acceleration. Having now driven 21000 miles on them and needing to replace. I won't be buying them again mainly because of that slippage as I didn't have confidence in pulling away and partly because I'm now is a position to afford Premium Tires and have opted for Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance 2's. Other than that they handled everything I threw at them. Summer, winter, wet, dry, ice, snow with the appropriate driving they were fine. They have lasted 2 and a half years (21000 Miles) not a bad tire by any means and if budget is a concern then you can't really go wrong.

These were on a Citroen C3 Picasso (205/45/17W) I bought and they were new tires. They are awful, they skip on tight corners in the dry, they easily aquaplane in the wet. I'm not going to risk my life in the winter so they'r coming off and Pirellis going on.

I was in initially doubtful about these tires but after 6 months of use i am delighted with all aspects of performance.I had Michelin primacy fitted previously and these tires out perform them in almost all areas.
My driving is mostly on Motorways or A roads in UK so I wont be hammering around any race circuits any time soon so these tires are more than adequate for this type of driving, its down to the individual to choose their preference but for £600 a set you wont go wrong in my opinion.

Great if you don't value your car, Good emergency tire. Terrible tire in general.
Bought after chunking a pothole as an emergency tire. Other tire was thin so bought as an axle.
Road handling is awful. You feel disconnected, I honestly thought my vehicle was faulty. Dry braking was increased by 10 meters from 60mph, ABS was panicking as the tires were trying to skid.
Wet is outright dangerous, these DO NOT GRIP. I used these tires for about 500 miles before buying a mid range tire.
Average cornering on these showed a lot of scrub.
Best thing about these, is they smoke well when burning out. I did not want to subject another road user to these as part worn.

There is a reason people call these ‘ditch finders’. They are unstable.
They came on a 740d I purchased because the previous owner had Champaign taste but lemonade pockets. They’ve immediately been swapped out for Goodyear Eagle F1 AS2

Well I've had these tire for around 14 months and covered almost 11,000 replacing them now for 2 reasons had a puncture in one and then inspecting all of them one of them it starting to break up on the inside shoulder looks like its delaminating so for peace of mind 2 needed to be done but done all four.

Before i go into it i had these tires fitted with the car brand new and had come from eagle f1's on my previous car. reading the reviews you have to treat them with respect in wet with braking distance in the 2021 Auto Bild UUHP Summer Tire Test the wet braking is over double the distance for braking so treat them like your standing behind a donkey.

Straight line traction - is quiet comical alot of power to a fwd car 2nd gear no chance 3rd gear even on a warm day it will still be spinning its quiet funny spin them up a few times and get some heat into them then start to hookup, in the wet forget it the tires can't cope even easing into it power is still cut.

I rotated them at 7000 miles Im sure they started out with around 7.5mm and had 4mm on the fronts rears had between 5.5-6mm so hoped for decent longevity.

Cornering dry conditions they are ok and can feel where the limit of the tire is nothing special but they didn't do anything you wouldn't expect

are they a bad tire no are they a good tire im going to say not bad but get what you pay for in the dry they are ok and had to do a couple of emergency stops in the dry and they was fairly decent with a boot full of kit.

They have a treadwear rating of 500 which sounds good but i was far from probably getting the theoretical milage I've gone to eagle f1 AS6, I got a good deal 4 fitted for £518 if i was to replace the landsails fitted it was £362.

If your in abit of a pinch and need tires and can't stretch to a midrange tire and willing to treat it with respect in the wet then its not bad i think there is probably worse tires out there but there could be better for similar money.

Honest review, I don't get the negativity from some. Snobbery?
I've used these now with no issues all year round for last couple of years.
I think because they are cheap they give off a negative impression, would I use them on track? No. But for every day spirited driving they are perfect.
Having been a user of PS4 and Eagle f1 which are great tires I needed a cheaper alternative so I could easily afford to get some new rubber whenever needed, without breaking the bank. The tire wall looks nice when dressed up, are quiet and grippy enough whatever the weather. The wear rate is similar to the PS4 but now you can afford to get new whenever you want at around 60 quid a tire in my size.

Worst wet weather grip I have ever known. The car spins its wheels on pull away and even when moving in the lower gears ( I do not drive a fast car!) on roundabouts it understeers and just go straight if there is any moisture at all on the road. My stopping distances are huge . I really think these tires are actually dangerous and I am planning to get rid of them asap money allowing. I run an old cheap car for commuting so I bought a budget tire-big mistake.
