From owners
Pros, cons & observations
Themes extracted from owner reviews across retailers and review sites — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.
The Toyo R27 is generally regarded as a reliable and capable original equipment tire, particularly for compact vehicles like the Mazda 2. While users appreciate its longevity, fuel economy, and predictable handling in fair weather, some note limitations regarding road noise and a lack of rim protection.
Pros

- Strong fuel economy performance
- Reliable grip and responsiveness in spring, summer, and autumn conditions
- Solid overall handling characteristics
Cons
- Noticeable road noise levels
- Lack of rim-guard protection
- Poor performance in winter or cold-weather conditions
- Susceptibility to dry rot after approximately three years of exposure
Observations
- Frequently identified as a standard factory-fitted tire for the Mazda 2.
- Users noted that the tire's performance is consistent with its role as a reliable OEM choice for compact Japanese imports.
The Yokohama Advan Sport AS is generally regarded as a competent, budget-friendly performance tire that excels in comfort and dry-road handling. While many users appreciate the value proposition and smooth ride quality, there is a notable divide regarding tread longevity and wet-weather performance, with some users reporting premature wear and stability concerns.
Pros
- Excellent value for the price, especially when sourced as discounted inventory
- Smooth and quiet ride quality
- Strong dry-road grip and cornering performance
- Improved acceleration times compared to previous sets
Cons
- Significant concerns regarding rapid tread wear and short lifespan
- Inconsistent performance in wet or cool conditions
- Lack of high-end performance feedback for spirited driving
- Potential for stability issues at highway speeds
Observations
- Users transitioning from run-flat tires to this standard construction report improved ride comfort.
- One user noted superior tread longevity on an electric vehicle compared to their previous Pirelli tires.
- Performance-oriented drivers found the tire insufficient for track-day longevity, noting rapid degradation after limited use.

How do we compare tires?
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements) normalized against the best tire in each test and weighted toward recent tests. 40% comes from thousands of owner reviews collected from retailers and review sites. When a tire has only one of the two, we use what exists and say so.
Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
