Anybody ever seen a 22"rim with 27" face

I'm at work today and I guy asks me if I can get some tires for his tahoe, so I go and look at it, It's 27" but the tire size said 305/45r22, turns out only Nitto makes tires for this thing. On the outside the sidewall was about 2" on the inside it was about 5? this just didn't seem right.Anybody else ever seen these.

Seems like it'd be a PITA to mount some tires on those... but I guess they do anyway...
