The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.
Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tyre makes on the road.
The following are not affected by the EU Tyre Label: retreaded tyres, professional off-road tyres, racing tyres, tyres with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tyres, T-type emergency tyres, special tyres for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tyres with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tyres for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.
With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.
Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.
Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.

28.03.2022 from Stamo PRO's: Great tyre. Great tread pattern. Braking fine wet or dry. Not noisy. CONS's: Hard/bumpy ride very noticeable on speed bumps and poor patched up roads. And although I rotated tyres back to front , I simply could not get steering wheel vibration/ shudder at exactly 100km/ hour to disappear. Maybe was a wheel balancing issue from the fitter ( maybe his balancing machine is defective ... ). On that basis , yes Id try them again. But if I suffer the same vibration situation again - they are gone !
07.11.2020 from Jason DANGEROUS!! I know they are budget and you get what you pay for but I bought these as they somehow have a 'B' wet rating. On anything other than bone dry roads its like driving on ice, tyres feel like they a constantly losing traction. Under medium acceleration or braking you have the DSC or ABS cutting in and cornering feels like the car could spin without warning. Just gonna count my losses on these tyres and change them. Unable to give a judgement on wear and fuel consumption as they won't be on the car long enough.
16.09.2019 from Richard My mixed road commute is a real test for any tyre and these Haida's really lived up to expectations. They give confidence in both wet and dry conditions and noise and economy are at least as good as the premium brand on the car when I bought it. I bought four tyres, as they were so cheap, it seemed crazy not to. Very impressed
