Laws in general suck when its against a custom truck/car, but I think I am all for this one.The No Spin ZoneVirgina considers a ban on spinner wheels
The Virginia House Transportation Committee is considering legislation (H.B. 2390) that would prohibit the use of spinner wheels, wheel covers and hubcaps. The bill blatantly ignores the fact that custom wheels are not prohibited by Federal law and should not be restricted in Virginia. The facts are that the Federal government rescinded the entire hub cap standard in 1996 when it was concluded that there was no safety problem relating to hub caps, and that the standard was overly design-restrictive.Furthermore, manufacturers are also required to notify the federal government of any safety problem or defect related to motor vehicle equipment within five days of becoming aware of any problems. Most importantly, there are no proven facts that spinners have a detrimental effect on motor vehicle safety.Virginia residents are urged to contact Delegate William Barlow, (
