When searching for tires, an increasing amount of customers simply ask the question “are these tires good?” While the term “good” can mean a lot of things, Landsail believes you should also ask yourself the following questions when assessing the quality of a tire. Are they safe? Do they perform well? And do they provide value for money?

Are Landsail Tires Safe?

The best way to answer how Landsail tires meet the first part of this criteria is to dive into their manufacturing origins by parent company Sentury, who has long been credited with developing tires for the main landing gear of the Boeing 737-700/800/900 aircrafts. Aircraft manufacturing is highly regulated and has the strictest standards in the industry. That means that the same stringent standards that go into these tires are being applied to Landsail’s – along with Sentury’s entire family of brands – making them one of the safest on the market.

Do Landsail Tires Perform Well?

In terms of performance, Landail tires are known for their comfortable ride with low road noise, even at high speeds. This is because several models, like the LS588 UHP and LS388, are engineered with noise-reducing tread patterns. Landsail tires are also highly regarded for their excellent traction for commuting and city driving, and long-lasting treadwear. This is especially true for their new Last-Mile Delivery options, which feature extra sidewall strength to help with curb impacts during urban delivery routes.

Do Landsail Tires Provide Value for Money?

Along with being an affordable option for SUV, light truck, and other passenger vehicles, Landsail tires provide further economic value through their low rolling resistance, which reduces the amount of fuel used. Their extended tread life of approximately 50,000 miles or beyond means you won’t have to replace them as often as other brands.

How To Maximize the Life of Your Tires

While selecting quality tires is a good start, in order to maximize the life of tires, you should keep a checklist of tire maintenance guidelines. These include:

  • Check tire pressure regularly: under-inflated or overinflated tires wear unevenly and increase the risk of blowouts. Be sure to check tire pressure monthly or before a long trip. For a more accurate reading, check pressure when tires are cold (before driving).
  • Rotate your tires: tires wear differently depending on their position on the car so it’s important to rotate them every 5,000 to 8,000 miles (or during every oil change). Tire rotation promotes even wear and extends total tire life.
  • Get wheel alignments checked: misalignment causes uneven tread wear, especially on the edges of the tires. If the car pulls to one side or your steering feels off-center, especially after hitting a large pothole or curb, be sure to get your alignment checked.
  • Balance your tires: unbalanced tires cause vibrations that lead to uneven wear and strain on suspension components, so be sure to get them balanced when you have new tires installed or if you notice a vibration at high speeds.
  • Avoid overloading your vehicle: exceeding your car’s weight limit increases tire stress and heat buildup so check the load rating on the tire sidewall and your car's manual for safe capacity.

The Final Analysis

Landsail tires are good for drivers who are looking for a variety of options from All Season to LMD tires that meet the criteria of being consistently safe, delivering high quality performance, and providing value for money. To ensure you get the most life out of your Landsail tires, be sure to maintain them well and keep a record of tire rotations for warranty purposes.
