How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.

The Toyo Proxes A27 receives mixed reviews from users, largely serving as an OEM replacement option for specific compact vehicles like the Toyota Yaris iA and Scion iA. While many drivers appreciate the tire for its smooth, quiet ride and decent handling, others report significant safety concerns regarding handling instability, poor wet traction, and shorter-than-average tread life.
Pros
- Quiet and low-noise operation on the road
- Smooth and comfortable ride quality for all-around driving
- Good general grip and road handling when new
Cons
- Short tread life, with sets lasting around 35,000 miles
- Perceived instability and leaning during cornering, especially in dry and wet conditions
- Narrow tire width limits available traction, requiring extra caution in wet or cold weather
Worth knowing
- Users frequently noted these tires as OEM equipment on compact vehicles such as the Toyota Yaris iA and Scion iA.
- Drivers of compatible compact cars noted a lack of alternative tire options in this specific size, making the Toyo Proxes A27 a default choice despite its drawbacks.
