G30 vs F10 Wheel Gap (xDrive)

Been admiring pix of new G30's. But some vehicles with xDrive sure look to have some major wheel gap. Especially with the thinner tires on 19" or 20" wheels.

Is it my imagination or is the gap wider in G30 vs similar equipped F10?

Probably not, if the pics are with a phone with a wide lens the gap will appear larger than it really is.

It will depend on the suspension. On the F10 xDrive you didn't get lower springs with any suspension option. On the G30 you can get 10mm lower suspension even with xDrive.
