This advisory addresses the proper storage of these tires in colder climates. As seen in the picture below, tires stored
and operated at sub-freezing temperatures, i.e., at or below 32°F (0°C), will lose rubber compound flexibility and may
experience cracking when operated under such conditions.

Not for all toyo tyres, just a heads up.
 
Thats appalling!!!
Can a company get away with providing a defective product?!!
I don't recall tyres ever having temperature regulations.

Its just rubber at the end of the day, it has its limits like evreything else. Rubber tends to be grown in hot countries so not all of it may like cold weather.

Here we see a typical Toyo tree. This one is growing PX4s..

These are basically their top-end track tyres, not the sort of thing that you'd select for everyday wear.

Interesting though that there is no warning on the spec sheets.
