Hmmmm. I was wondering if having tires that stick out past the wheel wells would pose a problem with PA inspection.
I see you still have Maryland plates so I guess it doesn't matter???

take it you haven't seen tom4bren's VX then !!!



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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The big question tho is do you measure how much of the tread protrudes or to the sidewall. Depending on the tire, there can be a significant difference.

im getting close!..

old monitor and head unit are out, i installed noise suppressors on both my constant power and switched power lines coming to the new unit, i just have to connect a couple more wires and install the new dvd unit

engine start button is here too, im debating on a place to install it, its just barely too big to fit next to the power/winter buttons, so my choices now are.. fiberglass the bottom DIN slot on the dashboard and install a couple 12v outlets there and put the engine start button in the stock 12v outlet area, or put the push button igniton just below the ignition on the lower part of the drivers dash, there is a nice flat area there too..... decisions decisions..

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.
