Jetta rims too wide?

Looking at a Jetta GLI for sale, whats up with the crazy looking rear tire, i mean it just looks like too much. Is it? the rims will probably be ditched as soon as i can sell them and get some bbs's so i mean what do you guys think? Im just shy on the whole, that doesnt look right thing i guess
