Rim Size

[kristrifo]

what width are your rims? going from 16" to 18" should be legal as its only 2 inches and yeah the tires you got meet the load rating and profile is right for 18s.
Maybe your width is greater than 7.5"?

rims are 7.5" dude

the guys were sooooo arrogant its not funny

he goes oh your rims are too big, youre not allowed to have 19s

after i told him hes blind and to double check that ive got 18s he said oh it still doesnt matter because you need an engineer's cert for 2 inches larger

frustration = epic

[TRaNz]

daffaaaa, they're 18s and 7.5 wide with tires that meet load rating and correct profile......dafuqqq, copper sounds like he was just being a prick. Im pre sure your wheels meet vehicle requirements man. faaaaa.... =[

now you understand my frustration haha

as i said, its not like i got my car sacked on 22 inch dolces or something

now i gotta spend money on getting a blue slip, plus going through the hassels of clearing it, not to mention the fine itself...PLUS i got defected for my ride height... my resonators were sagging a bit and it hit when they used the roller, pretty sure the law states that the chassis should be over 100mm from the ground? mine cleared it easyyyy and i still got done

but what really raised my blood pressure was when they asked me about the km's my car has on it...i told him i have 83k and he didnt believe me and insisted to check the dash himself because the kms (in his opinion) were way too low for the age of the car....it seems that taking care of a car these days has almost become a crime

*sigh*

[longers]

^ why the feck does it matter how many km's you've done?

think you just got unlucky with the cop. end of the month, trying to meet his quotas maybe.

bad luck dude, hope your shit works out.

The roller is of 100mm diameter. If it hits anything, you are not in the clear. Unfortunately, the coppers will measure whatever is lowest on your car. Even if this is your mud flaps, they will smack you with this. They technically got you there.

That said, you got a copper who just wanted to be an ass. When this happened to me in an R34 GT-T, the guy was much more professional at bending me over (and didn't miss ANYTHING, such a good screw over). Left me sore the next day, wondering why he wasn't calling.

Yes if they really want to get you they will. My last defect notice had 2 Police cars (they called for back up), was sitting on the footpath for over an hour while they searched my car from top to bottom then received 10 defects on the notice. All this arose from driving home one night doing the speed limit, apparently that is a crime these days.
