20's aren't huge with 35-40" tires. Those look like 22-24" to me. Single stack by itself doesn't make rice, but added with the low aspect ratio M/T tires on big chrome wheels, too much lift (useful-for-big-tires would have been to do the body work to get them to tuck), body-color painted and chromed suspension, it looks damning. The knowledge that he doesn't get it dirty, and washes it before it leaves the parking lot at work, goes one step farther. The last damning piece of evidence is how much smoke it does or does not billow.
I can see painted black wheels if they're all scratched to ////, and you just hit them with rattle can every time you clean the thing up. However, like the Jeep guys you talk about, painting wheels black is not an "offroad mod"
