haha, word.

you know........the offer stands bud - you get me 5 buyers that say that Kyle sent 'em - you get yours at MY cost! I'm not marking them up a lot, but every bit counts, especially when you are "over budget". LOL

Ohh i'm pulling my resources to get the buyers.

[0212353]

you da man!

Okay..... So here we go

I went to my buddies shop today to get some wheels and tires picked out.. Done! But here is the problem now. I wanted to put the Pocket style flares on my truck but the only way I wanted them was if I could get enough offset tire to make sure the tires were flush with the flares..

Well I was shot down today. By putting my 2" level on there it limits me on how much offset I can go if I don't want front end fabrication because of rubbing issues. So I would not be able to get the tires flush with the flare.. He told me that with the wheel I picked it would stick the tires out about 1 1/2 with no rubbing issues... But the pocket flares extend 2 some odd inches so I wouldnt get the flush look but close to it.

In order for me to get the "Flush look" I would have to go with a 4" Suspension lift and I am not putting a lift on the truck..

So I figured I would just get the Extend-a-flare instead of the pocket style......... But in looking at pictures of them I really don't like the way they look "Bubbled" so Now i'm stuck on what to do.

However I was looking at pictures of this truck (I ripped these pictures from you JJ) and they don't look to bad on this truck... I know it's a 1500 but i'm thinking that they would look close to this.





What do you guys think?

Pockets especially with a big truck and leveled up the whole point of pockets is to be a little wider so you keep crap Off your ride lol

Yeah I realize that and understand the fucntion of the fender flare. I'm not looking for the tire to be outside of the flare thus not doing it's job.

My point is I don't want the flares engulfing the tires because that looks stupid wearther it's doing it's job or not.

Not like I spend a whole lot of time off road in my truck and really have no use for the flares but for looks

[Lt.Dan]

I think those would actually look pretty good

[0212353]

do it!

and I don't understand their offset issue? Get wheels that work? I dunno?

[DoubleTakeDodge]

I think itll look good with those flares. Anything bigger than what you have now!
