What is to keep someone from modifying the car outside the law?  Just 
because a car has a valid registration and plates does not mean that it is 
street legal!  Not all localities test emissions or have visual inspections. 
  The DOT tire approval already exists for stock and street prepared.  This 
is not a new rule.  I don't understand how these can be of any importance.
