How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.
By owner reviews
58/100From 11 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.
By road tests
72/100Scaled across every tested tire: the average gets 70, the best 100.

The Landsail Qirin 990 is widely regarded as a budget-friendly touring tire that prioritizes comfort and noise reduction over high-performance handling. While many users praise its value and quiet ride, experiences are polarized, with some reporting excellent wet-weather performance and others noting concerns regarding tread longevity and stability on heavier vehicles.
Pros
- Exceptional price-to-performance value
- High levels of ride comfort and impact absorption
- Low cabin noise levels
- Competent dry and wet weather grip for daily commuting
Cons
- Shortened tread lifespan compared to premium brands
- Soft sidewalls can lead to a 'deflated' appearance and lack of steering feedback
- Inconsistent performance in wet conditions as the tire wears
- Not suitable for spirited or high-performance driving
Worth knowing
- Users with heavy vehicles, such as the Tesla Model S, reported concerns regarding sidewall integrity and premature dry cracking.
- Owners of comfort-oriented estate cars (e.g., BMW 5 Series) report high satisfaction with the tire's ability to absorb road imperfections.
- Tesla Model 3 users noted a significant cost-saving advantage, though they observed less 'lively' handling compared to premium original equipment tires.
