now and then I derail by posting non-R230. Now I want to share this with you guys. Not an R230 or even an R231 in sight, but ask yourself - how would I make photos like these?

It doesn't look like the tires are compressed, but it does look like the suspension is. I think the vehicles are lifted by the wheels, either by a lift arm inside the spokes, or by mounting some type of hub extension onto each wheel and lifting that way. That would give you an edge of tire to edge of tire view with the suspension in the loaded state.
