The broke 20-something living in his mom's basement with the "stanced" Nissan? Or the nationwide tire chain that agreed to mount them?


^^^ up

You forgot about when the broke 20-something's car blows out the tire, and then loses control, crosses the centerline and takes out a family of four. I look at a lot of regulations and laws as not for your own protection but for me and my family and friends. I could give a crap about you, or anyone losing control, or speeding or you hitting a tree head on it's when that happens to you or the 20-something and you end up injuring or KILLING someone else! Don't wear a seat belt, don't wear a helmet, I don't give a crap just don't ignore a law or regulation that if it happens you end up injuring or killing someone else besides you.
