My old Michelin PS4 gave way while I was driving, so I had to make an emergency stop and get some new tyres. Problem was, it was past 6.30 in the evening, and no shops were still open. I just gamble stop at one shop that wasn't closed yet, and they didn't have any Michelin, Toyo or Continental in my tyre size. But they did have Landsail UHP tyres. Priced about half the price of a Continental MC5 at that time. Not bad at that price actually. Grip was good, and they didn't crack or swell. But when the time came to change tyres again, I changed to Toyo. The only reason I used them in first place was because of emergency.

QUOTE(zerorating @ Apr 17 2023, 03:53 PM) If not mistaken, more than 1 year, but nowhere near 2 years. Threadwear was still ok actually, but I noticed some chipping on the tyres. Nothing too serious to be honest, but I'd rather not take my chances. Normally I wouldn't think about getting China tyres. But since I got ripped off on my Michelin PS4 price, changing to the Landsail sort of helped to balance the ROI (return of investment) a bit. In case you're curious, they were Landsail LS588 Ultra High Performance tyres.

QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Apr 18 2023, 08:28 AM) How many km u drive per year? Not even 10,000km per year these days. In the days before I got the car (Audi A3), I used to do outstation work all the time. But ever since I changed cars, my outstation work requirement fell off a cliff. So basically the car only used for city driving and the occasional trips to other states. Don't remember the exact mileage though.
