Just curious, where did you get nailed? I'm assuming around Milwaukee/Waukesha county, right? And how the hell can they nail you for tires? Were you on the belts or something? Around Appleton/Green Bay where I live I've never heard of emissions being an issue or cops being THAT ridiculous (although I do have a ticket for 'spinning in a parking lot' and was threatened with being arrested for doing so).
What part of WI are you from?
Haha thats exactly what I was picturing in my head.
I've decided to hack my old 2.5" Enthuza exhaust on it for inspection, as with some ugly wheels I have with plenty of tread. Definately putting a complaint in on this Sheriff, the more I think about his attitude the more I get pissed off, and I know that I am not the only one who he does this to. It is just plain harassment, in the end, whats the worst that will happen. I will get a butt load of non moving violations? Better than the buttload he gets every night
DEFINATELY ordering an electric exhaust cutout in the next few weeks, and a more permenent exhaust..

Ah, I'm not really familiar with Racine. I lived in downtown Milwaukee the last year (college) and my fiance's parents live in Menomonee Falls, so I'm a little bit familiar with the northern suburbs of Milwaukee but that's about it. I currently live about 10 miles from Appleton (Outagamie county) and no emissions testing is required here.

Yeah no emissions here anymore either. I have the car registered being "stored" up north though, since there was still emissions at the time that I registered it.
Just finished looking through every state regulation for motor vehicles. There are a TON of retarded regulations that I can't believe are even in the books.

Heres the Wisconsin regs, the only two chapters that I found that apply to vehicles in this case.
Chapt. Trans. 305 (This is the specific stuff, exact specs and whatnot) http://www.legis.state.wi.us/rsb/cod...s/trans305.pdf
Chapt. 347 (More general regs that are defined further in TR305)

I am not reporting harassment, I just want to report his conduct and how he implied that I have no one to complain to anymore. I've spoken with a few people in the field of law, and they agree 100% on my side, so I figure I must be somewhat in the right
