Vehicle model
Chery Tiggo
Tiggo is Chery's large SUV family, and its commercial cornerstone for export. The range covers several formats, from subcompact SUV to three-row mid-size SUV, with numbered models (Tiggo 4, 7, 8 and their Pro and Pro Max variants). Widely exported, the Tiggo models target families and buyers looking for space, a good level of equipment and modern powertrains at a competitive price. Recent generations offer plug-in hybrid versions providing long combined ranges. Depending on the size of the model, Tiggos commonly run 17- to 19-inch wheels with a common bolt pattern, dimensions for which the supply of all-season and winter tires is abundant. In the Quebec context, an SUV of this type would clearly benefit from a dedicated set of winter tires mounted on wheels for the cold season.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Comme la plupart des marques chinoises modernes, la gamme Chery privilégie les VUS, qui chaussent couramment des jantes de 17 à 19 pouces, tandis que les berlines tournent souvent autour de 16 à 18 pouces; l'entraxe fréquent sur les modèles compacts est de type 5x114,3 mm. À titre d'exemple, l'Omoda 5 reçoit des pneus en 215/55 R18 sur jantes de 18 pouces. Sur ces dimensions répandues, l'offre de pneus de remplacement et de jantes est large. Au Québec, des pneus d'hiver homologués (pictogramme montagne-flocon) sont obligatoires; un second jeu monté sur jantes d'acier dans un diamètre courant facilite le changement saisonnier et protège les jantes d'origine du sel et des nids-de-poule.
