Toyo Celsius Sport All Weather 225/50R17 98V XL Passenger Tire

I had just bought a very low mileage 2013 Honda Crosstour EX-L V6 AWD to use as my back and forth to work car to save miles and gas on my 2021 Ram 1500. Being in North Dakota, I wanted an all-wheel drive car/CUV as we get major snow in the winters. The dealership had just put brand new Goodyear Assurance tires on the car, the very basic ones. The ride was a disappointment, noisy, rough, and overall, these were not going to cut it even for summer driving. Did a lot of research and decided on the Toyo Celsius Sport. I have run Toyo Open Country AT II tires on several trucks and on my Ram, I now have the ATIII tires. After I had the local dealer mount and balance tires, I noticed an immediate ride difference when I pulled away. Quiet and smooth, all the harshness of the Goodyears was gone. The big test would be when the snow flies and about a month later, the entire state was hit with a massive blizzard and everything was literally shut down state-wide (this was in the late fall of 2022). Plows took a long time to get things even partially cleared due to the amount of snow. Of course, after the plows come through, there is usually the polished ice and snow layer left behind, and even with sand put down, it's still slick. I left my truck parked and used the Honda and I was very, very impressed with the snow and ice performance of these tires, along with the AWD. When leaving a red light, you can literally feel them biting into the snow/ice that is always compacted at intersections. Stopping distance was impressive as well with the conditions. Having always lived where there is always a harsh winter, I really appreciate these tires. About the only time I have used my truck is when there is deeper snow and the plows haven't been out yet. I know already that when it is time to replace them, I will be buying another set of these.

Just bought my Toyo Celsius Sport tires. I purchased them for my daughters Volvo XC40 R- Design car. I have not experienced winter driving yet but, I absolutely love the feel and the handling of these tires. They look awesome! Good job Toyo.
