The tires are 245/35/20, 20 x 8.5 all around, no spacers needed. The reason they look bigger is the 1" lip is inverted sort of, and the most of the wheel design comes out to the edge of the rim.

Yeah to Tee the reason why the rim looks so big is because its a full face wheel, no lip!

Wow wait... is that a "clear bra" gone bad? Why is your front and mirror all blue?

Honestly, the angle of the lines looked weird, I first thought you have photoshopped it in for some reason... to illustrate like where the clearbra would cover on a vehicle. After looking closer, the blue marking only went down on the bumper to the license plate level, the clearbra would cover the whole front face right?

It's just blue tape to avoid rocks on the freeway. You would take it off after you reach your final destination (aka carshow / meet).

Which one is it? I don't think it's the one with wipers up because the LS wipers don't lift like that fully down. Plus, that car looks small next to the CUV and the other car. So, is it the "grey" vehicle to the "left" of the small vehicle with wipers up? So your mirrors are not folded?

Or, are you in stealth mode and we can't see your car at all?
