Tire laws in the USA/Canada

Thinking about moving somewhere. Not to sure yet but I'd like to leave my car how "It" is with the tires sticking out. Maui, HI is pretty lenient towards that law but I'd like to know where I would be able to go with my car like this. Thinking either Oahu, HI. Seattle Washington. Or San Francisco, California. Please let me know. I have family in the last two so I'm leaning more on those areas.

In other words. Would my car be able to last by the police? Or will they ticket me left and right (knock on wood).

Found this photo you posted before. Yeah, you'd be ticketed around here.
You can get away with being out of compliance with the law as long as you don't draw attention to yourself. This would cross the line.

You should see me car now (lol). But hey, I've decided to stay in Hawaii. Just moving to another island than Maui ("Big Island". "It" would be a little cheaper since "It's" closer and I have lots of friends there and there are Great Beaches there to take the Cooper. Thanks!!!!

Also. They're very lenient there about the tire laws. People are driving Ridiculous Truck lifts there with 54" tires and The Police don't really bother much. Hey, "it's" Hawaii. We need the extra tire size for our little Grass Shacks on the beaches (lol jp).

I put the tire in the front now. I'll make A video once everything is done (Vandalism Fix + Wheel Setup = Praise GOD <3).
