On the GQ. Twice was for the 35s one time I was speeding. The speeding time I didnt get done for the speed but he sent me for dot inspection. When you go for inspection they dont just check what you were fined for its a full inspection.

Boy,,, they are nasty as up your way

I just got fined for tyres only, I actually had a genuine reason for the 35's as I've always had onroad and play tyres. I was heading out to the bunya mountains for n.y.e as friends rented a cabin, and I found a large slice in the sidewall so I decided to run the 35s incase I had a blowout. I told the copper that and he was cool about it. Still fined me, but no points, no inspection. I think he was right into 4x4ing because he knew what he was looking at knew that it was all good gear. After he gave me the fine he said "it's a bit high too mate.... have a good day".
Thats was country Qld though if it were Brissy, it probably would have confiscated under the hoon laws

Not really. It is illegal to run them I just chose to ignore that fact and got caught
