They often aren’t. For instance the wheels protruding past the fenders too far is likely not legal. They just pull off the wheels and put on a stock set when the yearly inspection is due, then put the big ones back on when it passes. Cops don’t bother ticketing for this stuff.

You're right, they're definitely not going to ticket themselves
