A friend just had to have her wheels replaced because the person selling her the car new had put on the wrong wheels...... Inspector looked up the wheels and codes and they had to be changed.
A (sort-of) version, USA style. I get my vehicle safety inspected. I'm not even warned about the tires, which are so threadbare as to be useless. I go into a skid on a NJ turnpike exit and almost lose control of my vehicle only a month or so after the inspection. Damn near killed myself and had it been a busier time, could have taken someone(s) else out, too.
I liked your last paragraph. Gave me a good laugh.
