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 tire, 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.

I ran these on my fiancé’s swift sport as they came with the car and had 0 confidence in the car. At high speed the grip just wasn’t there, swift sports are known to be good handling grippy cars and going between mine with Michelin PS4 tires on the difference was noticeable. Mine would dart about as it should and inspired confidence, his didn’t really like turning in, there was a vagueness to the steering. Again we swapped the tires out and the difference was night and day.
Do not buy these.
I had 4 fitted in March 2019 so 2 years and 25000 miles later the fronts still have 4.5mm and the rears almost 6 mm. I tow a caravan and trailer so the tires get plenty of punishment, they cope well in the wet and dry and are quiet given I live in rural Lincolnshire and the roads are shocking these tires perform brilliantly and at half the price of the Goodyear's previously fitted they represent great value. For a so called budget brand I have nothing but praise for them they suit my vehicle and at £65 a corner fitted I will continue to use them as long as I own the vehicle.

When i bought my car in march 2020 the place i bought the car from fitted 4 LS588 tires as part of the sale. I have been fairly surprized by these as they are far better than i was expecting, comfortable, low noise and handle pretty good, you really have to push them for them to let go and even then, they are predictable.
Downside to these tires, 5500 miles on the front and they are down to 4mm, rears are at 7mm. I swapped them round front to back to try and extend the life.
I don't think i'd buy them again purely because they wear to quickly, if they lasted abit longer then i would buy again without a problem.

Previously had a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4's which I wore through in under 10k - I drive my car hard - so wanted to go for something a little cheaper this time. Apart from a little less feedback through the wheel, these tires are awesome - more than enough grip in dry and wet even when throwing the car into corners way quicker than I should be. No tramlining or anything negative to say - not sure about wear yet however, but if they can do better than the Michelins I'll be happy

I have being running 588 landsail tires however i wont be doing so anymore ,
I took them off to replace with winter tires for the winter and noticed the new landsails i put on this summer have gone out of shape on the inside seems the wire bands have broke on 3 out 4 tires , they look perfect on one side but when you roll them around these is a big inwards dent and capping is starting to lift , these tires would have caused an accident if they had not being swapped for the winter set and only after 6k kms
Bought from TYRELEADER.ie and as usual they dont want to know after 15 days of purchase
I wont be dealing with them again or buying landsails.

I could not believe this Chinese tires can do much more if not the same as premium tires... This how tremendous technology gone so far on budget price tire... My previous tire are hankook ventus v12 evo 2 with 275/40R18 and now changing to landsail ls588 uhp 265/35R18 (available size in local store)... Initial impression after 500miles... The handling in dry absolutely stunning if compared to this price range with almost 50% cheaper than the v12 evo 2 the peformance is hard to beat, in wet heavy tropical rain thunderstorm in Malaysia is where this tire shines the most! I'm disagreed with "2015 Test World Summer Tire Test" that said this tire have bad aquaplaining resistance, infact this tire have far more superior aquaplaining resistance, handling limit in dry also predictable, stable in highspeed, of course the limit can reach early than hankook v12 evo 2 that can hold up the cornering much longer before loosing its grip but ls588 still manageable, progressive and not loosing grip out of sudden... This tires also have good road respond and rigid sidewall then v12 evo 2 which is too soft and amazingly far more quiter than the evo 2... Definitely great set of tire for daily run n fun spirited drive... Definitely will buy again!
I had two LS588 fitted during my last MoT. I'm an enthusiastic driver and was hesitant to switch from Toyo but they are a fantastic road tire. Very good for road noise and reassuring in the wet. Would recommend the LS588 to anyone, especially those who just need tires and aren't performance orientated, simply because they're so impressive all round.
Bought some LS388 from my local tire shop they were absolutely terrible every change of direction Felt like the side wall was super weak and was flexing side to side when straightening up felt dangerous. Swapped to a new set off what was on it before Which have transformed it back to how it should be planted to the road. Buy cheap buy twice!
I had them on the front axle on my 2010 Mercedes Eclass E250cdi estate. Done over 35000miles,mostly motorway miles, no problem in the rain,and I found them very quiet also. I have replaced them now with 2020 Landsail ls588 uhp version for about £140 a pair balanced and fitted on.One negative thing I will add that my car rear wheels are bigger 265/35/18,and when I purchased them first time in 2016,on the rear tires both inside walls have cracked within one year. So, for me only the front tires have done the job right 245/40/18.I do recommend them as an cheaper alternative, they lasted 4 years and over 35000miles.

Cheap chinese tire but they wear out very quickly. We are a taxi co and have now stopped using these tires as they wear on the inside or uneven wear
Extremely comfortable Tire for my Lexus, builds up speed quickly and seems to be wearing good. its not a tire if you're looking to go track days but performance and soaks up the roads irregularities well and does not disappoint when you put your foot down.
