    Suggestions? I want them white, color matched.

    The truck gets very dirty, very quick as she stands now.

    OEM? Bushwacker/Stampede are decent. Depends how much coverage you want too. There are a lot of brands out there to choose from.

    Ordered from Sparks Toyota OEM...12 offset blackrhino rims..the flares really help keep the road rash off the paint. Still no damaged paint issues 3 yrs later. Ok won’t go down the rabbit hole of flairs of no flairs. :D

    Trust me without flares you will have lots of paint damage over time. :pccoffee:

    Geno I bought them in 2014 when I bought my Tundra, I think I paid close to $550 and change shipped. The paint was a perfect match.

    Get the bushwhacker extenda flares, more coverage than the oem and not douche looking like the pocket flares (personal preference).

    Clearly, some trucks look good with the flares, and some don't.

    Here is what my white truck looks like with flares, with the same tires and wheels. Doesn't look too bad... But I'm not sure what brand/name/style that is?


    Is there another option? Bigger/Wider mud flaps? I do tend to drive where it is nasty and dirty, so I probably need to do something.

    Thanks! The tires are Toyo Open Country A/T. They are nice and quiet on the road and with my toytec 3 inch lift, Bilstein I can drive through pot holes on gravel roads and barely feel it. Pretty darn nice...

    I've offered to buy the ones on Craig's List. At that price, if I don't like them, I can surely sell them for the $450. Thanks big time to @six7zero !

    I agree, but in the short time I've had these wheels, the Pacific NW weather, gravel roads..... my truck looks like it's been through a mud bath!

    Excellent find on those off of Craigslist! I too was pointed in that very same direction and bought mine off of Craigslist ...


    "Douche style" Bushwacker pocket style ... Best bang for my buck mod I've added.

    Oh and @Tiger Tanker, while the flares will help some keeping your Tundra clean some ... That all depends on your tire and wheel sizes. I don't like the tucked in look and ended up buying wheel spacer that pushed my tires outside the flares.

    After looking at some additional links I believe they are OEM Toyota?

    I truly like the flares on the white truck although Toyota does not make flares. As far as I can tell they sell bushwaker oem flares. Looking at getting a set myself. Only thing I worry about is the rubber after time wearing threw the paint. Looks awesome

    I ordered the same ones from Sparks. Very happy with them so far, and they stopped all of the water from being thrown up. About $500 was the cost.
