Toyo Extensa A/S Tires (Our Review)
Overall Assessment
The Toyo Extensa A/S flaunts a symmetric tread design that makes cross rotation possible, minimizing irregular tread wear, which may cause misalignment problems over time. It also has a shoulder rib, improving stability and providing further protection against uneven wear.
The tread boasts 4 circumferential grooves along with several pitch channels that significantly enhance the tire’s wet traction. However, wet traction isn’t that good compared to other tires in the same class, especially in heavy rains. Nevertheless, it still provides enough protection against hydroplaning.
Moreover, the Extensa A/S has multi-wave sipes, which maintains a quiet ride on all types of roads. It also contributes to increasing tread life. Additionally, the center block arrangement is optimized with the variable pitch angles to ensure good road contact and greater stability.

If you cut through the tire, you’ll find two high strength steel belts and a polyester cord body that significantly strengthen the tire and improve its durability.
Being an all-season tire, the Extensa A/S isn’t designed for use in deep snow. You’d be better off with a set of winter tires if you live in a city where it snows frequently.
Pros:
- Uniform tread wear prevents misalignment
- Excellent dry and wet traction
- Almost produces no noise
- Good road contact with optimized block arrangement
Cons:
- Poor performance in deep snow

Matt R.E says: “Had these tires for several months, and I can honestly say that they’re quite reliable.

Wilson Parker says: “Been rocking these for a year now, and I can confidently say that these tires provide great handling and a solid grip regardless of the road condition. However, I wouldn’t use these in thick snow. For such a reasonably priced set of tires, I can’t ask for more. Definitely recommended.”
