Haida HD697 Winter Tire — Ultra-High Performance

Haida HD697 Winter — the large-diameter and ultra-high-performance end of the range

The HD697 is the widest and largest winter line we stock: twenty-eight sizes reaching 21 inch rims, in H, T and V ratings. It is where the low-profile fitments live — the sizes that are hard to find in winter at any sensible price.

If a customer has a large SUV on 20s, or a performance car on low-profile summer rubber, this is usually the only line in our range that has their size at all.

Arriving in the October container. Mounted, balanced and torqued in Edmonton with TPMS service included.

Choosing the right one

Questions we get asked

When should winter tires go on?
The rule of thumb in Alberta is seven degrees. Below that a summer or all-season compound starts to harden and lose grip, and that happens well before the first snow. Most people book the changeover through October.

How do I know what size I need?
Read it off the sidewall of the tire on your vehicle right now — it looks like 225/65R17. Match that exactly. If you are changing sizes, talk to us first; the wrong diameter throws out your speedometer.

Do you install and balance?
Yes, in-house at our Edmonton shop, including TPMS service. Tires bought here are mounted, balanced and torqued by us — book it when you order.

What does the number and letter after the size mean?
That is the load index and speed rating, for example 97T. The number is how much weight one tire can carry; the letter is its rated top speed. Both are listed on every size. If you tow, the load number is the one that matters.

Do I need four, or will two do?
Four. Two winter tires on one axle and two hardened all-seasons on the other gives you a car that grips at one end and not the other, which is worse than four of the same.
