Quite the wide stance you have going there. Will those front wheels actually turn?

You are fine! But why would you do the rims first before the body... i get lazy i do one thing and than im like ehh f it so for me itll stay the same way as yours looks like at the moment and probably grow on me. Its cool looking to me but i thought thats something Mexicans in cali do to their trucks and slam them. Never understood if that is it supposed to be cool lowerider stance or something? i didint feel like making a new thread about a simple question so sorry if this was a thread jack.

Nj is almost the exact same as Cali inspection except the specs of emission.

Btw how's the weather in LBC. I used to live there 10years ago during my younger childhood.
