I assume you're joking about that being the reason, but nah - they just like the look of it.

These are 215/50-13 on 13x6. Have pretty much the same contact patch as my S4 tires.

My next wheels are going to be 13x8 and the slicks I have for them are over 10" wide I am not a fan of mexipoke or stretched anything.
