Any1 got pics of their bushwacker or just normal fender flares after install. Id like to get those bushwacker ones with the rivets or fake bolts around the outside but am debating what itll look like with stock rims on.Will I need wheel spacer or offset rims and by how much? Any1 have pics of the side view and view from front or back?Did you paint them or leave them black?

These are the Bushwackers, but not the pocket style with bolt heads or whatever.

The tires are 305/55 and the wheels are 20X8.5 with a 6" bs. I personally think the flares look a little weird with the OEM tires/wheels. Even the wider 305's look a little too skinny with the flares.

Not to jack this thread, but Evil genius I was behind you on Eastern I think.

Offset wheels would be my preference, about 4.5" backspacing in an 18-20" wheel size. JMHO

the pics came off the cell phoen so there a little blurry..i always said i was gonna paint them but never got around to it and i actually like them black

I would agree, my tire/wheel combo doesn't stick out quite enough for the flares. I think when I go up to 35's after the levelling kit it will look just about right.

Shagginwagon's look great with the level and the 35's on 20's.

Today? My office is at Charleston and the Strip, but I sometimes end up on Eastern looking for someplace to have lunch.

Nice truck BTW!

hey ******* wagon, how did you use the bolts around the top/ perimeter of the flare ? my directions came in very shady for that area, I got the same flares, just waiting for a warmer day to put them on. Did you use them for looks, or are they actually bolted through the body panel ?? any pics from front, say straight along the body to show how much they stick out ???
