    FIRST OF ALL TTAC I hate it when you ask - WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE and then don't provide an answer at the bottom of the page. Is this some type of bullshit rhetorical question? If you ask me - you shouldn't have rims like that in winter - or, the fact I can't see a caliper. But how will I resolve this if you don't tell me?

    The tire is on the wheel correctly, but the wheel is on the wrong side of the car. Those wheels pull air out from under the car to cool the brakes and provide a tiny, nearly-insignificant amount of downforce. You would still get brake cooling this way, but you'd actually get a bit of lift, which I think those crazy engineers usually try to avoid. Take a look at a McLaren SLR if you want to see that wheel design done right.

    There are, in fact, tire tracks visible. You can see them coming down the "mountain". I'm sure it's all photoshop, but they did at least try.
