The one thing I'm grateful for from the BMW i3, is that ALL TIRES LOOK WIDE TO ME NOW.
That BMW let that thing get produced with shopping cart tire widths is still unbelievable to me...screams compliance car.
It makes my LEAF tires look positively sinisterrrrr by comparison.
I know of absolutely zero other cars that use the same tires that the i3 use... screams "opposite of compliance car" to me.
Are they funky looking? Absolutely. But a compliance car would use the same exact wheel and tire from a similar, gas-equivalent model.
Even further off-topic... I'm tired of people calling the i3 a compliance car. It is the absolute opposite of a compliance car. Nothing about it's design and engineering is even remotely close to any existing car out there.
