Pennsylvania fender flare laws
So I'm not sure if this is the right place for this post, but I've seen lot of different people say different things about fender flare laws in PA. According to the inspection website, flares can't be more than 3" wide. I've heard stories about people passing inspection with wider flares before too. I cant seem to find anything in the PennDot website or any other official website saying anything about tires sticking past the flares, so it seems like a grey area because I've heard stories about cops pulling people over for that. What is your interpretation of the fender flare laws?
EDIT: I just found this website: http://www.liftlaws.com/pennsylvania_lift_laws.htm and it says that the fender has to cover the entire tread of the tire. What if the sidewall is sticking out?

Okay thanks for that reply. I've seen so many different things said from people who have no idea what they're talking about.
