Hey, I'm not sure whether you have already put them on or not, but if not, I agree with the above post. In your situation (where you live), I would suggest you keep all your stock parts just for this reason. How often are inspections?

Are they concerned about the wheel size or the tire size? If it's tire, perhaps you could SQUEEZE stock size tires over those wheels. Otherwise, not sure how you're gonna get buy if the inspector is a dick
