Take your word for it over the Safety Division of the Virginia State Police who list all of the required inspection items for a Virginia state inspection?

I mean I guess if someone doesn't know the law or really wants to screw you....they could fail you for whatever they wanted to. But according to the requirements that I can find you would have reason to appeal. Who you would appeal to I'm not sure....

My stock tire had a nail in it was only a pound low when the light came on! That might have been enough for someone who pays attention to their car to slow down!

Okay okay....its a life saver. I would surely die of a tire blowout like everyone prior to the invention of the TPMS dummy light without it.

Now back to 20s.....love mine. Ride is fine. Looks killer. Begs for lowering springs. Looking to buy some but spent too much money lately.

Unfortunately I bought mine off a guy from Baltimore on Craigslist and the offset is off on the rear. The rears stick out about an inch or so. I wanted to get the Sportlines but I fear I might be SAFEST to get the Pro Lines. You know....so I don't blow out a tire or anything.

I just like the nice tight look of the Sportlines....
