Bought a certified second had 2019 Ford Explorer from the dealer recently. The vehicle came with 245/60 "18 Landsail tires fitted newly. Being a reputed dealer, I don't think they fitted low-quality tires specially in a climate where temperatures reach between 40 to 50 degrees. I am an average driver and was impressed with the very low noise and the tread pattern that looks a copy of the General Grabber HTS60. I’ve done some hard cornering on dry ground to test the tire and they grip very well. I’ve driven the vehicle at highway speeds of up to 140km/h. They are very stable and responsive. I did not see any difference when compared to the reputable brands I used before in my previous Explorer. Driven around 3000km at the moment. No complaints so far.
