    Nope, look closer, the tyres are the same allround

    Don't see how that proves anything, and all moving my eyes around was making me dizzy

    I agree, the fronts do look thinner

    But why?
    Most normal RWD cars still have equal size wheels front and rear.

    Possible fuel economy reasons
    ie rolling resistance
    Electric, hybrid or just trying things to reduce economy?

    Again, if so, why bother with the disguise?

    On the otherhand, the tyre size could be just an optical illusion

    It shows what cant easily be seen in the original pic, a tyre just as wide as the rear ones

    Pfft, your all wrong.

    Some Yank ricer kid decided to go his Mazda instead of his Honda with an over supply of duct tape and a facination for making the car look like ET.

    Looks retarded and massively unaerodynamic.

    Same thing happens on rear wheel drive too front brakes always do more work than rears.
