Yep, like the rest of us, just wanting to enjoy the outback without getting stuck and dragging the ass of you rig over every second obstacle.

We need laws to stop the ridiculous but a total of 75 mill is not enough.

Any amount of tire or wheel protruding beyond the wheel arches/flares or leading edge of the vehicle is not allowed, with or without an engineers cert.
The po-po down here just love defecting on this issue so engineers are sensitive to tire or wheel protruding past the wheel arches.
