Looks like these bad boys have been dropped about 2" across the board.
Yes, the wheel gap on this car in the game is much less than in real life. Also, some of these shots were taken mid corner and under hard acceleration making the car look even lower. In fact, during one of the launches that I did, the car seemed to have a bit of a squatting animation to it, sort of like how it looked in that video from the Tokyo Auto Salon where the Nissan rep did launch control in the Gray Z. Haven’t played the game long enough to figure out if all cars do this or only certain ones, but it’s a pretty cool detail nonetheless.
