Modified Vehicle Insurance Debate
#5
Driving on the street in racing tires isn't a good practice anyway ... so as long as the tires you buy are designed and sold as street tires you shouldn't have any problems.

Remember the term here is "modification" - if the Z06 or 911 is stock, by definition it wouldn't be affected.

No one will take them to court until such time as they start denying large numbers of claims on the basis of modifications - and who's to say anyway that this hasn't already happened somewhere.

In any event it shouldn't affect current State Farm customers unless their policy already includes the appropriate clauses and exclusions ... otherwise if you've got mods avoid signing with them.

Anyone in Manitoba or Sask got a spare room to rent?

wow that's crazy.  so that means my WRX that is stock everything (even the wheels are stock) except for 225/50/16 kumho mx tires instead of the stock 205/55/16 all season tires would not have insurance coverage in ontario?  wow.

does that mean no one will insure a m5, 911 turbo, z06 vette? all of those have 'extra wide treaded tires designed and normally used for racing' and they are all basically ' equipment designed for unusual performance'

i can't believe no one has taken insurance co's to court yet over this
