    In the UK you have to have the tyre covered by the wing, but strangely enough its from a birds eye view, so you'd need to add 'fender extensions' My 265 75 16 tyres are 'just' inline with the stock fenders.

    etlsport..VX is lookin AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I was getting my DD inspected on Friday so I took the opportunity to ask the guy what the rules are on tire protrusion. This is for Virginia so you'll hafta check your local juristiction for any clarifications. In VA, the tires can protrude from the fenders 4". That is measured from the most outboard feature of the fender to the most outboard tread feature. So the bottom line is that I am currently leagal (barely) but if I go to a more agressive tread or something with side-biters, I may not be. Fender flares or mudflaps are legal ways of getting around this restriction. Some localities may also allow you to add an amber light above each fender and be legal as well. Now for the caution: What's legal at the inspection station may not be legal in the eyes of your State Police ... and he's packing ... and he's on the same team as the judge. If he tickets you ... guess who wins.

    BTW Eric. It looks great - very professional.

    ohhhh goodness! i cant believe i left my wire hanging for all to see!

    thats the video bypass to allow the display to work while driving, i use it because my phone connects to the AV input so i can see google maps, my texts and incoming calls without having to look down at my phone... i still cant find a switch i deem acceptable to put there
