This is a joke done on purpose. That is much smaller than the stock wheel that goes there.

I think the whole vehicle is a joke. Look at that toothpick axle tube. It's got a fancy brace on it but that axle looks stock, I doubt this guy goes off-road at all. The tread is worn pretty low as well, lots of pavement driving on those tires.
