History
History of the Fiat Uno
The Fiat Uno is one of the brand's major city cars, launched in 1983 and voted 1984 Car of the Year. Designed by Giugiaro, it redefined the small-car segment with a tall, aerodynamic body offering remarkable interior space for its size. Built in more than eight million units, it ranks among the most-produced automobiles in history. Sold in Europe until the mid-1990s, it enjoyed a very long career in Brazil, where a modernized version was marketed until 2014, becoming an iconic popular car in South America. Now an older or collector model, the Uno runs on small-diameter tires and wheels, easily found in modern equivalents for anyone maintaining an example.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Les Fiat sont surtout de petites citadines, ce qui se traduit par des pneus et des jantes de diamètre généralement modeste, souvent autour de 15 à 17 pouces selon le modèle et la finition, avec des dimensions compactes faciles à manipuler et économiques à remplacer. Les utilitaires comme le Ducato utilisent des roues plus grandes et des pneus à plus forte capacité de charge. Au Québec, où les pneus d'hiver sont obligatoires, un second train hiver monté sur jantes en acier dédiées est fortement recommandé pour ces véhicules légers, afin d'assurer traction et sécurité sur neige et glace. Vérifiez toujours l'entraxe, le déport et l'alésage exacts du modèle avant l'achat de jantes.
