Its his rear tires, not the wheel. I had both version of the Michelin PSS in my possession and there is a huge difference between how the K1 ferrari spec tire looks compared to the regular version. Same size and everything. The K1 tire runs a much more rounded sidewall with a rim protector buldging out and you are also only getting 7/32 tread with a new tire. that is roughly 30% less thread compared to the normal version fyi... To be fair its not anybody's fault since it is the correct size tire. Michelin should have been more clear about this or vendors selling them should have pointed it out to you. I found out the hard way and had to send the tires back and reorder the non K1 tire.

Good thing is that its safe running this setup. Just have to be more careful with curbing the wheel.

I see, but still, the gap looks horrible to me. it looks totally off! Maybe just some poor res. photos.

I want to ask if they have "k1 spec" for 21" PSS? If so, have to stay away from them for my next set of tires.
