Re: Getting Ready for my Inspection...

I'm running 35's (13.5" width on 9" wide rims) with OEM spacing on the rims and 2" spacers to compensate for the width. I'm running a 2.5" lift but kept my leveling kit in to keep the nose up (300lb bumper compared to the OEM 30LB bumper brought the nose down significantly). From the side with the new tires you can see about an inch of tread, where before with the 33's you could only see the sidewall lugs. According to the MA laws, with Mud Flaps, I don't even need fender flares, but it's open to interpretation, which, therein lies the problem...
Until MA Inspections follow the MA specific laws when it comes to the difference between "Cars" and "built for Off-Road Usage", everything is based on the opinions of the inspectors, and not the legal requirements of the state.
