Aggregate test summary

Strengths and weaknesses — what each tyre does best

• Kleber Quadraxer 3 (made in PL) — key strengths: excellent snow traction and braking, strong aquaplaning resistance (longitudinal tests), short dry braking distances, and generally good comfort and exterior noise levels. Test notes mention it as an “all-rounder” with convincing behaviour on snow and ice. Main weakness: a tendency to understeer on wet/dry surfaces and slightly delayed steering response in some wet tests.


• Toyo Celsius AS2 (made in JP) — key strengths: very good mileage and price/value, comfortable ride and low exterior noise in some tests, and solid aquaplaning reserves in certain test conditions. Main weaknesses: lower grip in wet and snowy conditions, understeer and delayed steering response on wet/slippery surfaces, higher rolling resistance in some reports, and generally weaker winter performance versus Kleber.

Mutual test positions and head-to-head

Verdict — which should you choose?

Choose the Toyo Celsius AS2 if your priority is long mileage and low cost per kilometre, combined with decent comfort and aquaplaning reserves — but be aware of compromised wet and snow grip. The Celsius AS2 is a budget‑focused option rather than a top performer in mixed‑condition tests.
