What an under rated tyre. My favorite yet and I've been through loads of hugh and low end sets.
Such a quiet tyre, handles great, wears reasonably (you want a tyre to wear or its a rubbish tyre)
I would put these up against my Michelin Pilot Sport 3's.

25,000 miles (40,000km) on the front of a 150hp Mazda 3 diesel. Remarkably long lasting so good value.
The tyre is hard (squeals in hard cornering) and doesn't quite have the dry grip I'd like - way batter than some though. Wet grip is surprisingly good. I'd probably go for a premium brand but for mid range these are excellent.

I replaced the original Dunlops with these CF2's on my wifes Honda Jazz 18 months ago. When new the tread depth was 7mm. After 15000 miles I checked the fronts and was amazed that they are now 6mm which means they are excellent value for money. The dry grip is confidence inspiring and very progressive in the wet plus give a very compliant and low noise ride. I really cant fault them especially as they came in about £10 cheaper per tyre than other premium brands. Highly recommended for anyone who wants excellent value for money.

Fantastic tyres. Fitted all 4 10k miles ago. By this mileage the fronts would be 2/3 worn. Not these they have hardly shed a mm, it's usually the outer shoulder that goes first hitting the roundabouts quickly but these are withstanding the punishment really well.. so for wear rate they are brilliant. Wet grip is also fantastic, very confident inspiring, I've not had to slam on in an emergency in the wet but I'm happy I've got the best grip available if I have to, compare with rainsport 3 they are right up their in terms of wet grip and handling. But offer much more longevity, I've had the rainsport 3s and managed to get 10k miles at a push on the front, that's taking them right down to the legal marker. I much prefer to change no less than 2mm
Buy again.. absolutely no doubt. I've found a perfect tyre, I no longer have to trawl thru review after review to find something good. Just buy and drive no hassle.. happy days

They do the job, i had rainsport 3s before these, i lost grip in corners with the proxies in the same wet weather conditions and speed as the rainsport3 other than that they both faired the same

I try lot of tyres, but never use tyre like this one! After 19000 miles on mine Megane mk3 I was buy another set of Toyo CF2. Even after listet mileage tyres still "behave" safe for use. I lost traction only once, but that was one week before I replace tyre with new one, so it very impressive. Big recommendation for a good quality tyre at great price. I paid 45Eur per tyre...

These are the third set of tyres I've had on the front of my car and are undoubtedly the best. While not deficient in any way compared to the previous two sets, their wear rate and therefore life have been head and shoulders better. The factory-fit Continentals were utterly dreadful, lasting just 17,000 miles. (I will NEVER buy Continentals. Not only did they wear unacceptably quickly, they seemed unusually prone to punctures: both rear tyres suffered terminal punctures in the first 27,000 miles, compared to only one other puncture in the last 40 years.) The Avon ZV7s that I replaced them with lasted a slightly better 19,000 miles. But the current Toyo CF2s are just coming up to 20,000 miles and have plenty of tread left, such that they will last at least 24,000 miles, which is an excellent 25% more than the Avons, for around the same price, and an astounding 40% more than the Continentals, which are much more expensive. To be clear, this is on the same car, with the same (only) driver, doing the same annual mileage on the same mix of journeys, so the results are directly comparable. Given that the Toyos are no worse if not better in every other regard, they are definitely now my tyre of choice, so that I will go out of my way and pay more to buy more, and have no hesitation in recommending them.

Long lasting (61000Km) good grip in wet and dry and decent price. Good tyre on this size for a normal non racing racing style driving. Would buy again.

These tyres came with my new car from a dealer. After 3rd season (now it is 5th season) I've noticed that Toyo rubber became very hard and brittle. Previously I used Nokian, Continental, Cooper and Michelin and never seen such hardening. Handling became worse too, you feel every bump on the road regardless of the tyre pressure. I still have 3mm left (5th season) but I consider poor wear anyway because of rubber material degradation. So, I do not recommend to buy Toyo tyres unless it is very cheap.
