Make sure you get a picture of the DOT number. Its going to be a number letter combo up to 12 characters long. Usually in groups of four. Such as C62U H7HR 1209. Occasionally the middle set will contain only three. The last four being the week and year the tire was produced.
thanks i was wondering what that number looked like and if it was even on the tire all i could find is jus dot last night... but thanks im going to get a pic of the number on the tire in a few minsQuote:

lol now i dont know if i know anyone owning or working at a shop that could do inspections. i think i might be ok with the exhaust and tag, may end up eating the tire ticket.Quote:

It also will not be relolved in one day. When you take the tickets to court, you are just there to get sentanced if you plead no contest or guilty. If you plead not guilty, they will set another court date for the trial.
Are any of the tickets "fix it" tickets? Where you repair the "faulty" conditions and have the car inspected the local PD and you pay a smaller fine?

If the evidence the issuing officer collected sounds anything like the videos she posted, any judge will be able to without a doubt tell it's quite a bit louder than "stock."Quote:

Tires are iffy, I think you should be able to get out of it. If they are legal and have adequate tread (did they measure?) If your down to your wear markers, the "BALD TIRED" ticket makes sense. If your front tires are fine you should be able to use that to at least cut the ticket down. If an officer writes you a ticket for "FOUR BALD TIRED" I would think they need to do measurements on all four tires, for evidence.
they did not touch any of the tires, they just looked, and the rears are to the bars like ive said before, i think the fronts are almost there. he used a voice recorder to record the sound of the car which id assume would make it sound alot louder then it is jus like the vids she posted do. an he also says "smell that u dont even have a cat. converter" (it was running rich at idle hasnt been tuned) he did no visual check for a cat but made the assumption that i dont have it on his own.Quote:
