Latest Tyre Test Results

2021 Auto Bild UUHP Summer Tyre Test
8th of 9 tyres
  • Very low rolling resistance.
  • Limited wet grip, very long wet and dry braking distances, bad handling and poor aquaplaning resistance.
  • Not Recommended.

2015 Test World Summer Tyre Test
8th of 15 tyres
  • Short braking distance in the wet and dry
  • Handling not good enough in the dry. Very weak aquaplaning resistance.
  • The Landsail LS588 UHP were surprisingly unbalanced. Braking in the wet was excellent, but handling very unstable. In addition, the tyre copes worse than the others with emergency manoeuvres and is quite susceptible to aquaplaning. On dry pavement they again quickly stopped the car, but had very slow response to steering. Lateral grip and stability are too weak for the optimal performance of a sharp manoeuvre at high speed. Because of their softness they demonstrated a high level of comfort, effectively absorbing road irregularities.

My car is not a sports car.It is an audi a6 avant 3.0tdi.So its a big heavy car.Wheels are pretty big 19inch.So i go to the local tyre place and ask for two tyres.Just under 400 pounds WHAT?.So i start doing a little research and up pops landsail ls588.In a blind tyre test it did ok against all the big names.I bought four tyres for 220pounds.Ive been to germany twice cruised at 150mph.Tyres are nice and quiet and have lasted well.My question is where in this day and age can you put your high price tyres through their paces .You cant too much traffic so why would i spend nearly a grand .I love fast cars and yes if i were living where there was little or no traffic and i had a porsche of course i would spend the money.But for day to day driving around town and the occasional road trip there great.

Latest Landsail LS588 UHP Reviews

Given 83% while driving a Skoda Rapid TSI (215/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 21,000 spirited miles
Purchased these mainly because of the price. I needed 2 new tyres 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 Tyres 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 tyre 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 tyres. 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.

Given 97% while driving a Mercedes Benz 250 CGi estate (225/45 R17) on mostly motorways for 1,100 average miles
I was in initially doubtful about these tyres but after 6 months of use i am delighted with all aspects of performance.I had Michelin primacy fitted previously and these tyres 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 tyres 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.

Given 36% while driving a Volvo V60 D6 AWD (235/45 R18) on a combination of roads for 500 spirited miles
Great if you don't value your car, Good emergency tyre. Terrible tyre in general.
Bought after chunking a pothole as an emergency tyre. Other tyre 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 tyres were trying to skid.
Wet is outright dangerous, these DO NOT GRIP. I used these tyres for about 500 miles before buying a mid range tyre.
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

Given 56% while driving a SEAT Leon Cupra ST 290 (FWD) (235/35 R19) on a combination of roads for 10,500 average miles
Well I've had these tyre 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 tyres 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 Tyre 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 tyres 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 tyre is nothing special but they didn't do anything you wouldn't expect

are they a bad tyre no are they a good tyre 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 tyres and can't stretch to a midrange tyre and willing to treat it with respect in the wet then its not bad i think there is probably worse tyres out there but there could be better for similar money.

Given 86% while driving a Ford Focus ST250 (235/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 6,000 spirited miles
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 tyres I needed a cheaper alternative so I could easily afford to get some new rubber whenever needed, without breaking the bank. The tyre 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 tyre in my size.

Given 47% while driving a Rover 25 (185/45 R14) on mostly town for 2,000 spirited miles
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 tyres 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 tyre-big mistake.

Given 69% while driving a Honda Civic Type R (245/30 R20) on a combination of roads for 1,000 spirited miles
The shop put around 41psi at the rear, so my first drive can be considered really scary. They felt unstable at the beginning the high psi did triggered the TPMS. Had to stop and deflate them to 33psi. At 300km breaking in, I still don't feel safe when entering corners so I pump another 2psi to give it stiffer feeling for the sidewall. I can now put a bit more throttle at the corners without the scary sliding/unstable feeling. Now at 1000km, a little improvement during cornering, however straight line pull is not stable. The rear is unstable and the car feels like floating at high speed. At 170kmh, you can feel like the tires are too soft and flexing too much even with straight line pull. Still manageable but not really as good as the Conti. I'm not expecting the LS588 to perform like OEM Conti Sport Contact 6, but they are night and day difference. However, at normal driving speed they can be quite comfortable. Low noise. Just that they are not really reliable/safe for spirited driving.

Replaced Pirelli pzeros with landsail ls588 UHP car felt immediately better to drive handling more precise on dry and wet roads. Stopping distance was excellent on dry and wet road. Noise levels were very acceptable for such a large tyre. 8000 miles just ove half worn. Brought 4 tyres for £500 instead of £1300 for the Pirellis.

I’ve had Pirelli, Bridgestone the lot and I always come back to landsail. Great tyre. I drive an Alfa Romeo so drive hard into corners and hold the limits where I can. They are responsive and hold the road really well. They don’t sag or roll. Grip is very good in dry. Wet is good also. Not sure why they are reviewed as average.. bizarre. I think they are amazing value for money. To the point you can replace every 8000miles instead of having to try and ekk out every last mile on premium brands.

Given 60% while driving a Renault Megane RS250 (235/35 R19) on mostly country roads for 6,000 spirited miles
I bought my car with these tyres fitted and they aren’t the most confidence inspiring on a sporty car, that is meant to be driven in a spirited fashion. Their performance in wet and dry conditions wasn’t terrible but did limit the car significantly. The sidewall also felt fairly soft and would roll in most bends. They have worn out in under 6,000 miles, which is the longevity I would expect from and be happy with from a more performance orientated tyre. Overall, they are a reasonable tyre but I wouldn’t recommend trying to save money and run these on a fast car as you’ll be doing your vehicle a disservice.
