Its 245 mm width and 40-series profile give the tyre a distinctly performance-oriented road character.

About Landsail LS588 UHP 245/40 R20 99W

The LS588 UHP is Landsail's ultra-high-performance road tyre developed for high-performance automobiles, including sports-oriented and luxury applications. The exact 245/40R20 99W specification uses a standard-load construction rather than XL, with an 8.0-8.5-9.5 inch rim-width range, 9/32-inch tread depth, 27.7-inch overall diameter, 9.8-inch section width, 1,709 lb maximum load and 49 psi maximum pressure. This makes the exact configuration different from some higher-load LS588 UHP sizes.

Tread design and steering response

The LS588 UHP uses an asymmetric tread design with long longitudinal grooves and lateral grooves working together to support traction during cornering. Large shoulder blocks are intended to improve dry traction, steering response and sport-oriented handling. Wet-traction sipes and drainage channels help move water away from the tread surface. Landsail also uses optimised tread-pitch alignment to reduce repetitive tread noise during normal road driving.

Dry-road handling and cornering

The 245 mm section width provides a broad contact area, while the 40-series profile limits sidewall movement compared with taller touring configurations. This can contribute to quicker steering response and a more controlled feel during lane changes and cornering. The 99W specification allows a maximum load of 775 kg per tyre and a maximum rated speed of 270 km/h. Actual handling depends on alignment, suspension condition, tyre pressure, vehicle loading and driving style.

Wet-road traction and braking

The LS588 UHP incorporates specifically positioned sipes and grooves designed to force water away from the tyre surface and reduce hydroplaning. Landsail's LS Silica Compound is designed to improve flexibility in lower temperatures and wet traction while reducing rolling resistance. The exact 245/40R20 99W configuration carries a published UTQG rating of 500 AA, meaning 500 treadwear, A traction and A temperature. These are comparative classifications rather than guaranteed braking distances.

Comfort, noise and everyday driving

The 40-series profile provides a sportier road feel but less sidewall cushioning than a higher-profile tyre. On smooth highways this can support precise steering and stable tracking, while sharp potholes and broken urban surfaces may be felt more clearly through the vehicle. Landsail specifically designs the tread pitch and alignment to minimise road noise and states that the LS588 UHP is developed without sacrificing comfort and ride quality. Actual cabin noise varies with the vehicle and road surface.

Who should consider this Landsail?

Landsail LS588 UHP 245/40 R20 99W suits drivers looking for an all-season UHP tyre with responsive steering, cornering stability and strong road-oriented behaviour. It may not be the preferred option for serious off-road driving or buyers who specifically require run-flat mobility. For customers using Dwbtyres to buy car tyres in UAE, the vehicle placard and existing sidewall markings should be checked before ordering. Buyers comparing Landsail Tyres should match the complete 245/40 R20 99W specification.
