I had these fitted on the front by the previous owner. Initially, they felt just fine. Dry grip was quite weak, but it didn't bothered me on this car. I also noticed a rhythmic vibration once I was over 120 km/h, but I thought that maybe the tires were not balanced quite right or maybe the alignment was off.
While driving on the highway, i had a sudden puncture. Thankfully nothing dangerous, but it did damage the rim slightly. What was curious was that the entire inside of the tire had just come apart. A very strange way of failure, but I thought that maybe I had hit something.
When I went to the tire shop, I had new Pirelli Pzero fitted. When the other Landsail was taken from the car, I saw on the inside the very same defect as the one that punctured !!
The tires were not underinflated and I have not hit absolutely anything. This was a very, very dangerous type of failure, that happened on both of the tires. This is unacceptable in my opinion.
Once I had the replacement Pirelli's fitted, I also noticed an improvement in road noise.
Please avoid the Landsails. There are plenty other better budget tires.
