For winter tire i will swap my 22 inches from my 2013 Sport to 17 using 265/65 R 17 and that will do almost the same as original 22.

 

I'm sure i will go with Nokian Hakappeliitta but dont know if I will go with Haka R SUV or Haka 7 unstuded. Smeone have try one of these?

I had Haka 5 on my last car Matrix XR AWD and it was really great. Nothing to say about these tires except driving control.

 

Original tire - 265/40R22

  Sidewall: 4.17 in

  Radius: 15.17 in

  Diameter: 30.35 in

  Circumf: 95.34 in

  Revs/mile: 664.60

 

New Tire - 265/65R17

  Sidewall: 6.78 in

  Radius: 15.28 in

  Diameter: 30.56 in

  Circumf: 96.02 in

  Revs/mile: 659.89

 

Speedometer reading with new tire is 0.71% too slow.

When your speedometer is reading 60mph you are actually traveling 60.43mph.

I've been running Blizzaks for the past 10 years on my Ranger. I will probably be putting them on my Edge this winter. As for rims, I am looking at the cheapest 17x7.5 set I can find. I will also buy a hand psi gauge and put up with the warnings all winter for my tire pressure because TPMS is the dumbest thing ever required on a vehicle. The batteries died on my wife's, and we've never changed them.
