Or even the latest 911. But these not only have a better suited profile for this visual trick, the whole rear wheel is larger, not just a larger rear rim + thinner rear tire setup which looks inadequate and defeats the purpose.

It doesn't look as bad on a slender 2 door coupé such as the M4, but an executive saloon or a boxy SUV are just designed to look best with same diameter front and rear wheels.
