Sorry for the weird colors and stuff, I had to touch up the image so that the tires were a little more clearly defined, and as a result the rest of the image suffers. Hope it helps anyways.

You know...because the sedan is quite skinny and the tires are tucked in a bit, it takes quite a wide tire to make it look beefy. Whereas cars like a basic 325i, they have a fender flare and their offsets lines up right by the fender, the same tire width on a 325i looks more meaty than a G even if the G has wider tires.
If you look at the back of a 350z, the tires itself are not that big but because it's so wide, your preception of the tires are wideeeeeeeeee just because the body is wide.

Of course, with some wider wheels and a set of 275s I bet the sedan would look like a Bulldog too.

If you are looking for a beefy tire, check out the BF Goodrich KDW2's. They have great performance, and even better reviews.
