The front of the car I measure as 118 pixels high from the shadow on the ground. So that is a ratio of 1.573 to 1.
I still dont know the rim size or hubcap size though.
Well, what you're looking at is the hubcap, which is a larger diameter than the specified wheel size (which is at the bead, not the external dimensions) by about 1". Wait a minute, what part of the car are you talking about? I'm talking about the top of the fender over the tire.
