Vehicle model
Aston Martin DB11
The DB11 is a grand tourer coupe and convertible unveiled in 2016, succeeding the DB9. It introduced the brand's modern styling language and a new aluminium platform shared with other models. Aimed at an affluent clientele seeking cruising comfort and long-distance performance, it comes in V8 and V12 engine versions, including a more radical AMR variant. Replaced from 2023 by the DB12. In the Quebec market, the DB11 wears wide, low-profile performance tires on large wheels, often in differentiated front/rear fitments specific to the brand; a dedicated set of winter tires is essential and legally required to drive safely in winter.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Les Aston Martin (DB11, Vantage, DBX) montent des pneus de performance taille basse sur de grandes jantes, généralement de gros diamètres, souvent en montes différenciées avant/arrière. Ces dimensions sont typiquement spécifiques et exclusives à la marque, ce qui rend les équivalences plus limitées qu'un véhicule grand public. Au Québec, l'achat de pneus d'hiver dédiés est essentiel et légalement requis sur ces véhicules sportifs et SUV, idéalement sur un second train de jantes adapté à l'entraxe d'origine. Mieux vaut confirmer la dimension exacte, l'indice de charge et de vitesse sur le flanc d'origine avant toute commande.
