CYPRESS, Calif. — Toyo Tire U.S.A. Corp. has introduces the Celsius Sport Ultra-High Performance All-Weather tire designed for high performance luxury cars, CUVs and SUVs.
The tire carries the three-peak mountain snowflake symbol designating its capability in snow, slush and ice for all-weather performance.
The Celsius Sport features: high sipe density, multi-wave sipes, zigzag-shaped tread blocks and wide grooves with traction bars to optimize all-weather winter traction. A specialized silica compound provides high grip in wet and dry conditions while maintaining flexibility in cold climates, Toyo said.
An ultra-high performance casing construction improves responsiveness, handling, and delivers more even contact pressure during acceleration, braking and cornering.
"The rapid growth of the Celsius name proves the importance of all-weather convenience and utility to the consumer," Cameron Parsons, Toyo product engineer and field analyst, competition and specialty tires, said.
"As the all-weather category continues to grow in popularity, we are excited to bring these benefits to an audience looking for a higher performance, premium product in the form of the Celsius Sport."
The tire will be available in 43 sizes, fitting 17- to 22-inch wheels and comes with a mileage warranty of 60,000 miles for V-/W-rated sizes and 40,000 miles for Y-rated sizes.
