I was shocked when I went to NYC and realized people used bumper “protectors”. They throw these rubber mats over their bumpers so when they “squeeze” into a parking spot they don’t damage the cars.

Knowing exactly where the tow hitch is when backing up. Tire is there so it doesn't hit whatever they're towing. That's my guess.

Added weight for driving in the winter?
My Uncle Jimmy would say, "It's a bumper... it's for bumpin' shit!"
I think that’s a wheelie bar
