That's almost full coverage. Nice. Looking at those now you must wonder how you drove around without them.

Did you remove the plastic edge/trim piece at the bottom of the fender behind the wheel (or was it even there)? I just put my right front on and I took that piece off and now there is a gap at the back of the flare, at the bottom. I tried to see if it was there in some of your pictures, but there isn't a shot that is close enough to tell.

Thanks,
Nyte.

OH DUDE. I've been searching for that picture and couldn't find it. My truck is silver/dark shadow and I'm contemplating that setup. Was going to do either the Pocket Style Flares like those or the Extend-A-Fenders...painted dark shadow to match my rockers. With my black stepbars and black bull bar, that setup with a black wheel should look sweet.

That looks GOOD. Thanks for posting it.

Do you mean the front wheel well?? If so, I originally took them off because I was rubbing, but once I put my 2.5" spacer on, the rubbing stopped so I put the caps back on, and that was before I put the flares on..

Dumb question here....but what are the specs on your rims (size, backspacing) and tires?


Thanks!


Great looking truck! Silver looks awesome when nice and clean.

Thanks for the response. Yes, the front wheel well at the bottom rear of the fender. It's a small grayish plastic cap. I ended up taking it off both sides. The driver side flare fit more snug than the passenger side so there isn't a gap on that side. The gap isn't "freakin' huge" so it might just need to be adjusted. Ironically the matching pieces on the rear quarter panels didn't need to be removed. But talk about a PITA. The rear flares weren't as easy to install.

The wheels are 18'' Moto Metal 950's with 4.5" of backspacing. The tires are Nitto Terra Grapplers P325 65 R18 or 35's.
