Thanks for any input
I hate to be the one telling you otherwise, but after you drop your suspension, you should get recon. It'll be easy to pass and if you modify later you won't have to worry at safety inspection. The other thing is if you're pulled over the police will less likely think that you have stolen parts. Don't let the tire stick out from the fender, that will get you in trouble.

I disagree, but I guess it's better to be safe than sorry. Eh?

Isn't recon just an Oahu thing? I don't know about Maui and Big Island but we don't have that here.

Correct. Every other county besides honolulu never enacted recon, b/c they know how to spend money within their budget. You also don't have tint laws either, if i recall correctly, another moneymaker for the county of hono-loser (yay ++$$).
The most bullshit part of recon is that the C&C of Hon. is the only one with recon, yet the only one without a racetrack. Go F'kn figure. I guess they only make money for the council members who can't spend w/i their budgets.
I F'kn hate Oahu already; 2+ years trackless island with a million people.

We do have have the same tint regulations here. Lately there's been a crackdown on lifted trucks for height and tire regulations.

ALL of oahu falls under honolulu COUNTY. So east oahu, west, even central.
It's a pretty big county, compared to mainland counties.
