Vehicle model
Maserati Ghibli
The Ghibli name first designated a sports coupe launched in 1966. In its current form, the Ghibli (third generation, type M157) was reintroduced in 2014 as a four-door sport sedan, positioned in the mid-size luxury sedan segment, below the Quattroporte. It targets buyers seeking a high-performing sedan with a distinctly Italian style that is usable every day. Its career has included gasoline and mild-hybrid versions, up to very high-performance V8 Trofeo variants, as well as final editions marking the end of the V8. In terms of tires and wheels, the Ghibli commonly wears 18- to 21-inch sizes depending on the trim, with low-profile performance tires and often staggered front/rear fitments. In Quebec, a set of winter tires, ideally on dedicated wheels of a reasonable diameter, is essential for safety and winter comfort.

Tire and wheel compatibility
Les Maserati modernes chaussent généralement de grandes jantes : on retrouve couramment du 18 à 21 pouces sur les berlines (Ghibli, Quattroporte) et les VUS (Levante), certaines éditions spéciales atteignant 21 ou 22 pouces. Ces véhicules utilisent souvent des pneus de performance à profil bas, fréquemment montés en dimensions différentes à l'avant et à l'arrière (montes asymétriques). Au Québec, des pneus d'hiver dédiés sont indispensables et obligatoires; il est souvent judicieux de prévoir un second jeu de jantes d'hiver d'un diamètre plus modeste pour réduire les coûts et améliorer la traction. Vérifiez toujours dimension exacte, indices de charge et de vitesse et entraxe propres au modèle.
