Toyo Celsius

Bought 4 x Toyo Celsius in early 2022 and in April 2025 they have now covered nearly 40,000 miles and are down at 3mm tread depth all round having rotated them twice a year.

They've driven from Lancashire UK to France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Sweden & Norway - almost 4,000 miles.

They have recently returned from a trip round France, Italy, Switzerland & Germany - 3,000 miles.

The Made-in-Japan Celsius delivers a smooth, comfortable, quiet ride that helps the miles pass by with ease.

They track a neat line round long corners without the need for minor corrections and it'll drive in a straight line for 100s and 100s of metres with your hands off the steering wheel . . . it's a great tyre to drive long distances with. Minimal effort is required making it a relaxed touring companion.

In winter it's always gotten us home from wherever we've been. And we live in the hills where, come snowfall, 99% of people don't venture out in their cars. The deepest snow the tyre has seen is about 4 to 6 inches and traction and braking were impressive. The aggressive tread design and traction claws obviously help inspire confidence in these conditions.

In the wet, standing water doesn't throw the car off line and motorway driving in heavy rain is surefooted.

Again, dry weather poses no issues for the tyres which have seen +35deg C and the tread blocks have remained stiff enough for you to enjoy fast B-roads in the summer.

It's a well-engineered tyre (each wheel is balanced with just 10 to 15 grams of weights in total). Most other tyres we've owned (Bridgestone/Goodyear) required 30 to 50 grams in wheel weights.

We're due to get some new tyres come October/November but we'll have to get a different brand because when I've looked Toyo Celsius are regularly unavailable in the UK in the tyre size we need. Tyre Leader, Mytyres, Black Circles, Camskill and even a local tyre fitter who specialises in Toyo tyres can't get their hands on them.

I thoroughly recommend the Celsius if you're looking at Toyo as a potential purchase - assuming you can get hold of them!

Best tyre I've ever had on my VW Golf MK2. Solid on the road, grip on rainy/ice roads. After 9 years and 25k miles, my Toyo tyres shows dry rot and needs replacement.

What an awesome tyre!

These tyres are far better than "standard" tyres when it gets cold.

My wife's car has Cross Climates. I've previously had Nokian Weatherproof and Goodyear Vector 4 Seasons. All were notably better than the Toyo's. Not a world away, but better when the conditions get bad. They're not bad or dangerous or any nonsense that you read, but they're not as good as the ones I mentioned. Even with these, in a hatchback I've passed many 4x4s spinning on the wrong rubber. I bought on price and got what I paid for, good enough but not the best.

I'll leave them on until they wear, but will replace with better ones.

Terrible wet pavement traction. Hydroplanes bad

Best all season tires I've had on my car. No noise, no problem whatsoever. Nothing to say bad for normal consumer use. Never lost control on my car in any condition with the Toyo Celsius. Same goes for my family members who has been driving the car since early after their after their 18th birthday. First set lasted 60000 km. Second set on of Toyo Celsius on now. Prior had more expensive and cheap tires on. Toyo made the difference for me . On all 3 my cars I use Toyo all season tires.

I did very well with them, 21,000 thousand kilometers, I am generally happy and of course also with the price, the next time I change I will also try the new model

Recently purchased for my Toyota CHR Hybrid and so far so good. Decent grip, feel,road noise. Done a bit on snow and seem good.

Tires are wearing out well. Over 10,000 km of city driving on them and the rear still has 8mm tread while the front has 6mm. Felt great even in the ice and snow. Not as grippy in the ice and snow as Blizzaks or Ice Guards but works well.

Purchased the Celsius CUV tires for 2019 Forester. At first tires seemed fine except for a more bouncy sidewall feel. Over time noticed tires respond to raised bumps in front or back depending on tire rotation. No response from Toyo after two tries. Dealer could not duplicate complaint. Decided to replace tires because they do not seem to provide a stable feel. Previously had Celsius on Corolla and they were fine. Great snow performance not too good wet panic stopping. Otherwise no complaints. For V rated tire sidewall does not seem to match expectations of ride quality.

Great for 4x4 cars in all seasons, including deep snow.

We have 2 Suzuki swifts, both with these tyres. The Suzuki has a tyre size that few manufacturers cater for in all season tread. If you want an all season tyre I can highly recommend them. Rain, snow, sun greasy roads..they perform well. Good lateral grip and even with the beast from the east we weren't stranded. Yes, there may be better performing tyres but in this size I can think of no better option. They can spin on wet junctions but with a bit of expectation they are fine. A great all rounder and have lasted 3 years without issue. Will definitely buy these Japanese tyres for my Japanese car again.

I have had many tires on my vehicles, this is the overall best tire. Over 100000Km Have had these tires in the worst of snow storms and the hottest of days...rain, sleet and ice. I will be replacing them with another set of Toyo Celsius CUV. Does what it says it will do.

These are the worst tyres I have ever experienced, by far. I would even say that they are dangerous.

They replaced 4 Uniroyal RainExpert tyres which were very worn-out. Apart from the fact that they were noisier, the
worn-out Uniroyal tyres were much better than the brand new Toyos.

Positive: -they are quiet
-quite comfortable, although not as comfortable as you would expect from such a soft sidewall

Negative: -slow steering response and poor grip on dry, wet and snow
-very long braking distances in all conditions
-very soft sidewall which gives awful handling characteristics
-imprecise steering with very little steering feel
-unstable feel at all speeds, dangerous almost. In corners, the back end is all over the place
-the car is leaning much more into corners, compared with other tyres

It may sound harsh, but this is my honest experience.
I am replacing them after 10000 miles, even if they seem to have tread left for another ~15000 miles.

There is nothing wrong with the car, these are the first tyres that made the car behave like this.
The results are the same with any tyre pressure.

I know that you can buy Toyo Celsius tyres made in different countries.
These 4 have written on the sidewalls: Made in Japan.

this is a tire for bad summer, like snow in the top of the mountain, frosted morning. heavy summer rain, mud and outback country road.very ggo for the people who like put his summer tire early and late to put winter tire in automn.

Very pleased with my choice. The tires are true all weather. Warm up very fast and they have plenty of grip dry and wet. Snow grip is just awesome. With a simple 2WD hatch i managed to pass alot of roads with heavy snow for alot of km when other vehicles were facing difficulties even with snow chains.And all that was done smoothly and easy. Even on icy surface didnt let me down.
Price was also the lowest 200euros installed. I would definitely buy them again.
