A lot of manufacturers do this. Corvettes have had 19 fronts and 20 rears since last generation. Several Ferrari models have it. The reason is that increasing the length of the contact patch helps with straight line performance, but the only way to do this without significantly increasing sidewall is to go to a larger wheel diameter.
