Apologies for the title and the overall tone of this post but my wife and I are petrified after an incident this weekend. Fortunately everyone walked away, but we’re hoping for some guidance.

The other day while driving, I noticed a tall T350 passenger van. What was unusual was that the tire stuck out a good 4"+ OUTSIDE the body. They were covered by plastic fender flares.
