This is definitely a temporary install to pass a vehicle inspection. Tires aren’t allowed to extend past the fenders, so the kiddie pool fenders get them past that rule.

Lifted trucks here with super wide tire will either have a second set of stock tires/rims that they will install before they go and get a safety check, or they attach cheapo “fenders” that get pulled off immediately after the check.

I haven’t ever seen kiddie pool fenders before, I usually see plastic landscape edging instead.

and they’re parked in the handicapped spot too…probably with no permit

It’s an 80’s Bronco II on chrome steelies, 35’s, and full float axles. I’m guessing actual utility won over style here.

It’s pretty innovative, actually.
