Default Busted in PA

We’ll the law finally caught up to me and the world is now a safer place. Got busted by a PA-State a couple of weeks ago. Pulled out and followed me for four miles because my 315’s Duratracs extend ¾” out. Only had them 2 months. I’m surprised that they didn’t raid the PA-Jeeps Show last week. There was tons of low risk revenue they could have earned there. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a huge supporter of our finest….but this was pretty lame. I see Xenon flats in my near future. Not giving up my 35’s!

US-30 EB at Wrightsville. He was sitting in a plain wrapper Mercury beneath the Burgs Lane bridge at WSBA. No other motorists ahead or behind me. Alone and vulnerable.

Ridiculous. PA cops sound like real douchebags.

Let's not turn this into a cop bashing thread. Believe it or not, most criminals are caught during traffic stops. Murderers, drug dealers, rapists, child molesters etc etc all travel our roads everyday. Sure getting a ticket sucks, but it doesn't make the cop a "dousche bag". And we never know who we are stopping, it could be a model citizen or it could be the last face we ever see before we are shot dead on the road.

to be honest I don't see what the big deal is. I don't even live in that state and I knew it was a law there.

The law is ridiculous. A tire sticking out a quarter inch poses what type of threat? I'm glad I don't live in a place so strict.

If you've ever been on a motorcycle and pelted with a rock that flew out of a tire, you wouldn't think so
