Vehicle model
Land Rover Range Rover
Introduced in 1970, the Range Rover invented the luxury SUV concept by marrying refinement, on-road comfort and genuine off-road capability. Now the brand's flagship, it comes in several lines: Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, Velar and Evoque, from the compact SUV to the prestige vehicle. It targets a high-end clientele seeking status, comfort and technology. In Quebec, these heavy vehicles often run very large wheels (up to 22 inches or more) with low-profile tires; a set of winter tires, ideally in a reduced wheel diameter with a taller sidewall, is strongly recommended for traction, comfort and protection against potholes.

Tire and wheel compatibility
Les Land Rover récents montent généralement de grandes jantes, le plus souvent de 18 à 22 pouces selon le modèle et la finition, avec des pneus à profil bas sur les versions luxueuses. L'entraxe (bolt pattern) courant des modèles modernes est 5x120, avec alésage central d'environ 72,6 mm. Au Québec, les pneus d'hiver sont obligatoires et essentiels pour ces SUV lourds : il est fréquent de monter un ensemble hiver d'un diamètre de jante inférieur à celui d'origine, avec un flanc plus haut, pour gagner en confort, en motricité et en protection de la jante contre les nids-de-poule. Vérifiez toujours la dimension exacte inscrite sur le pneu d'origine.
