Vehicle model
IM Gamme IM - utilitaires ou VUS
IM's SUV range occupies the segment of premium electric crossovers, from compact to large. It notably includes the LS6 (compact SUV, exported under the name IM6), launched in 2023, as well as larger models such as the LS7 (2022) and recent large SUVs that can adopt the range extender (EREV). These vehicles target a family and professional clientele looking for space, high range and cutting-edge technologies (driver assistance, connected cabin). Internationally, the IM6 is distributed through the MG network in Europe and Australia. On the tire and wheel side, these SUVs are fitted with large wheels, often 20 to 21 inches, with low-profile tires; their substantial weight and high torque call for robust tires. In Quebec, plan for a dedicated winter set, sometimes in a reduced diameter, to preserve range and grip on snow and ice.

Tire and wheel compatibility
Les modèles IM (berline IM5, VUS IM6) sont des véhicules électriques premium chaussés de grandes jantes, typiquement de 19 à 21 pouces selon les versions, avec des pneus à profil bas. Sur les déclinaisons sportives, on observe une monte étagée (pneus arrière plus larges que l'avant), par exemple en 245 à l'avant et 275 à l'arrière en diamètre 20 pouces, en pneus performance. Le poids élevé propre aux VE et le couple instantané sollicitent fortement les pneumatiques. Au Québec, des pneus d'hiver dédiés sont indispensables et fortement recommandés en monte hiver souvent réduite d'un diamètre pour préserver autonomie et confort. Confirmez toujours dimension exacte, entraxe et déport d'origine avant l'achat de jantes.
