In Virginia you can run any plate the displays the appropriate tag numbers. The month/year stickers must be affixed. The problem is you have to carry a copy of the state code with you because most officers don't know ALL of the codes (imagine that). We've run british tags on our land rovers but pretty much gave up the practice because it wasn't worth the hassle of the police. Also, if you've had even one beer you're putting yourself at risk in a pullover.

no way, its an original plate, thats like saying, screw the 240z, go with the 350 it has a smoother ride!

So, one would assume you are still running the original tires...right! I think not. Like I said...each to his own!

just paint it so they wont notice and you will be all set
