Hi Cesdan510 generally speaking we don't recommend the use of dedicated winter tires in temperatures above 7 degrees Celsius. In addition to rapid wear you may also notice limitations in performance due to the softer compound.

Thanks for the feedback Stryckerrr.!

The Open Country C/T is pre-drilled and can be fitted with studs to improve traction in icy conditions. More information can be found here www.toyotires.ca/tires/all-terrain-all-weather-tire-open-country-ct . Please keep in mind that the Open Country C/T is an all weather tire, which by definition, is a cross between an all season tire and a dedicated winter tire. The Open Country C/T will provide better cold weather traction compared to an all season tire but for maximum winter traction and piece of mind we would recommend looking at a dedicated winter tire like our WLT1 for commercial use www.toyotires.ca/tires/light-truck-heavy-use-winter-tire-open-country-wlt1 or our GSi-6 LS for passenger use www.toyotires.ca/tires/winter-tire-passenger-cars-vans-and-suvs-light-trucks-observe-gsi-6

@TheSebasss652 La principale différence réside dans le composé de la bande de roulement. Le composé du Proxes Sport est conçu pour maximiser l'adhérence et la maniabilité sur les routes chaudes et sèches. Ceci est particulièrement avantageux lorsque le pneu est monté sur des voitures de sport de luxe telles qu'Audi, Mercedes, etc. Le composé du Proxes Sport A/S est conçu pour équilibrer les caractéristiques de performance avec une durée de vie plus longue par rapport au Proxes Sport. Le Proxes Sport A/S est mieux adapté aux voitures de sport moins puissantes que les voitures de sport de luxe du Proxes Sport.

@@toyotirescanada Donc si je comprend bien pour ma civic FK7 182ch je doit prendre un A/S . Un grand merci pour votre réponse 😉👍

@@TheSebasss652 Oui, ce serait le meilleur choix. 👍

Zmelli, we recommend switching your all-season or summer tires to a dedicated winter tire, like our Observe GSi-6, when the temperature is consistently 7 degrees celsius or cooler. While a winter tire's more aggressive tread pattern maybe the first thing that stands out when comparing it to a all-season or summer tire one of the biggest differences is actually the tire compound, or the mixture of components, that makes the tires. For all-season and summer tires the emphasis is on tread longevity and performance. While this is great for three seasons of the year the compounds used in the tend to loose grip in colder temperatures. In comparison, the compounds in winter tires tend to be softer and have specific compounds that enhance the tire's grip to the road in colder weather.

Great, I put the Observe GSi-6 in a 185/70/14 on my car. Driving from Albuquerque NM to Oklahoma City in the Morning! @@toyotirescanada

DaleyBoy2267 the Celsius II has improved wet road traction. thanks

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for sharing your experience @titanoboa. We're happy to hear that our tires performed well for you when you needed them the most!

Thanks for the comment Matt. We're confident you'll be pleased with the Celsius II's performance. As you seem to suggest, all weather tires ( regardless of manufacturer) are designed to be used in areas that have moderate winters. For regions that experience harsher winter conditions, including higher snow accumulation, we would recommend a dedicated winter tire such as our Observe GSi-6 or Observe G3-Ice.

hows braking on ice?

@@cloudchaser9951 excellent,

Thanks for the feedback therewedge9446. It's important to note that the Extensa HP II is positioned as a value oriented performance tire. For the ultimate in performance handling we would suggest looking at a tire in our Proxes line of ulta-high performance tires.

Wow, didnt expect a reply ! These are very good for what they are. I will definitely go back to more sticky tires when the time comes. Toyo is absolutely my favorite brand and the Toyo proxes line up has been my favorite. I forget which tire I had on before but these currently but hooked nicely. Though with me driving longer distances now, the extensa are a good compromise.@@toyotirescanada

Hi @alexic, the siping on the Celsius Cargo is the full tread depth. Thanks for asking.

Paul, While the Extensa HP II and the Proxes A/S have some similarities they are designed for two distinct types of vehicles and drivers: 1) Speed Rating- The Proxes Sport A/S offers sizes in V (240 Km/h), W (270 km/h) and Y (300 km/h) while the Extensa HP II is only available speed ratings V &W. While either option would fit your needs with a Ford Fusion some other manufacturers may require "Y" rated replacement tires which would disqualify the Extensa HP II. 2.) Tread Compound- The tread compound used in the Proxes Sport A/S is designed to maximize grip/ road conduct in wet and dry conditions while the tread compound found in the Extensa HP II is designed to reduce rolling resistance and maximize fuel economy. 3.) Tread Design - The Proxes Sport has an asymmetric tread design with the inside portion of the tread designed to evacuate water and maximize wet traction while the outside portion is designed for dry roads. In contrast the Extensa HP II has the same tread design across the full tread face to provide a high level of all-season traction. The above provides a quick comparison on the Extensa HP II and the Proxes Sport A/S. Factors such as driving style, road conditions, and vehicle type are also important variables to consider. Your local Toyo Tires dealer would be happy to help you select the appropriate tire for your needs.

Thanks for sharing Omari!

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for reaching out bzacon. I think you'll be very happy with the tread life on the Extensa HP II. Keep in mind though the Extensa HP II is an all season tire that is designed for temperatures above 7 degrees celsius. For winter driving we strongly recommend drivers switch to dedicated winter tires like our Observe GSi-6 or Observe G3-ice tires or an all weather tire like our Celsius line.

Hi Phil .. just something we created to set the mood.

@@toyotirescanada ah nice, sounded like Brian Fallon when I saw it on TV ... had to see if he might've done a commercial for Toyo Tires! haha

@@toyotirescanada you guys made better music than what the top people are making these days

@@toyotirescanada Well, its catchy as hell. I was gaming and heard it on the TV in the other room, and had to run in to just catch the end and only knew it was a Toyo Tires commercial. (Getting gamers to abandon a game in progress is no small feat!) Take it to the next level - its a money maker!

Hi! Yes, the Extensa HP II is directional and indicator arrows can be found on the sidewall. Thanks!

@@toyotirescanada cool i see it, my set just came in today. Thanks

To add, the Lexus winter tire would be either 225/65/17 or 235/60/17 size as I am doing the minus 1 calculation from the OEM F-Sport summer tire of 235/55/18. Are the various models of the GSI-6 available in same sizes or does the tire size dictate which GSI model is available for that size? Thanks again.

@@alanf5351 thank you for your mesage. We would recommend our 195/65R15 GSi-6 for your Corolla and the GSi-6 LS for your Lexus. The GSi-6 LS is specifically designed for the heavier loads of SUV's, CUV's, and light trucks as well as their performance/ handling characteristics given their higher centre of gravity. With regards to "speed ratings the actual speed that you drive is a lesser concern. The rating really relates to how well the tire compliments your vehicle in terms of overall performance, ie braking, cornering, etc... It's for this reason that we, and most other tire manufacturers, require that replacement tires meet or exceed the speed rating of the original equipment tire that came with the vehicle and which is noted on the tire information placard.

@@toyotirescanada Thank you for your reply. On your website for the GSI-6, it doesn’t specify which model of GSI-6 there is available for any of the sizes listed in the list of sizes available. There’s a list of all sizes available but doesn’t state if that particular size is available in GSI-6, GSI-6 HP or GSI-6 LS or all models available in all sizes. I guess I will figure it out when I order it from my tire supplier unless you can help with that question also. Thanks so much

@@alanf5351 Hi Alan, here's a link to our GSi-6 brochure that brakes the sizes down to by GSi-6 version. The tread compound and general tread design is similar between the three versions of the tire with relatively minor distinctions (i.e. connected tread blocks for the HP version) to account for the different performance characteristics of the uniue vehicle types. www.toyotires.ca/sites/default/files/tire_brochures/2020-winter_en_3.pdf

@@toyotirescanada You are the best! Last week I opened that brochure from your website but somehow completely missed the brochure chart showing which sizes come in what model of GSI-6 tire. Have a great day!

William, we’re sorry to hear about your experience with our Extensa HP II. The details that you noted in your review are concerning and not typical of the tires that we take pride in producing. With that in mind, we would appreciate it if you could reach out to us mmiller@toyocanada.com so we can work with you on this matter. Thank you (Mike).

Skill issue

My son’s Durango has 23k on them and they still look good. Great tire

@@75yellowraven great thank you for letting me know.

All weather tires, given their hybrid nature, are best suited for regions that have milder winters with lower snow accumulations.For Regions such as Saskatchewan that receive high snowfall amounts and extremily cold temperatures we would strongly suggest a dedicated winter tire like our Observe GSi-6 www.toyotires.ca/tires/winter-tire-passenger-cars-vans-and-suvs-light-trucks-observe-gsi-6.

Thanks for sharing your feedback KyRoD!

Botond Barta, The Celsius and Celsius CUV tires are all-weather tires which means they have the mountain snowflake symbol and are approved by Transport Canada for year round use. This is in contrast to all-season tires that are designed for use in the spring, Summer, and early fall and should be replaced be cold weather tires when the temperature drops below 7 degrees C. If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to contact our consumer relations dept at 1-877-682-8696. Thx

@@toyotirescanada Thank you, I'm from Italy, here the law is very strict for tires.

@@botondbarta9753 Understood. You may have to dig a little deeper to see if the Celsius ( or all-weather tires in general) are approved for cold weather use in Italy.

Thanks for sharing your experience Joe.

Sorry to hear this Jeffery. Have you checked to ensure the tire pressure matches your vehicle manufacturers specs?

@@toyotirescanada I have done everything I could, correct pressure, multiple attempts of balancing, regular rotation...Even my winter tires ride much quieter and smoother. Toyo is a good brand but this specific one is just not designed right.

I agree. I have these in my CX-9. Quiet at first but after about 20,000 mi they have become so loud. Even at cruising speeds of 40mph they start to roar.

Same here. Loud like a truck.

Thanks for sharing your experience FBIagent.

Hi M H, each region selects the tires that they will offer in their geographic area of sales.

how do they handle in the rain

That's great! Thanks for the update Danny

@@cloudchaser9951 Not good in the rain. Not ment for that. Amazing dry summer tire.

@@dannylay7965 how is the road noise and bump comfort?

Sorry to hear about your previous tires. We're confident you'll be pleased with how the Celsius performs.

Thanks for the feedback Sasquatch Guy. We're sure you'll be pleased with how the Celsius performs in warmer weather as well.

That's great Mason. Thanks for the feedback!

CannaGaut thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience with our tires failed to meet your expectations. We'd definitely like to discuss this further.

Must be different laws of Physics there.

@@DCDura hits the pedal to hard

Bullshit these are great tires especially when studded. I live in Canada and these perform very well in all aspects rain snow slush and snow. The studs make them better to grip the ice underneath.

@benbell3638 Bullshit back at ya. You Probably live in Ontario or some crap. You don't have winter. They are no better than any other.
