295/60/20 with fender flares anyone?

Any 3rd gen owners running this setup? If so, may i see some pictures?

thank you

 

What size is your wheels? Truck looks good btw.

 

20x9 +12 fuel assaults

 

I can’t seem to find +12? I only see +1 or +20 in that size.

 

Do you happen to rub with that setup or no?

 

Some old photos before flares ... 295/60/20 +20 (minor rubbing on liner behind the bumper and had to remove the mud flaps)


After adding my flares ...


wasn’t aggressive enough for me so added 1.25” spacers (making my offset about a -12 and started rubbing on the body mount)




Forgot to mention that all photos were while I was leveled 3/1 with a Toytec kit.

 

No rubbing . They had to trim and cut

 

I’m guessing prior to the spacers, the wheels/tires were not flush with the fender flares?

 

I was running Bushwhacker pocket flares last Fall and through Winter. I'm running Method Roosts with -25 offset, so they stick out with the 295/60/20 Wild Peaks.

Took them off in the Spring when I was thinking about getting the truck wrapped. Paint was rubbed badly along the entire area where the rubber gaskets touched the body ... pissed me off!! IF I ever decide to reinstall, I need to lay down some clear film for them to sit against so the paint is protected.

NOT reinstalling them again until I can find a solution that would allow me to run splash guards with them. Our roads are shit in Winter and they use mag chloride - without splash guards, all that crap was getting thrown onto my rockers, all over the dual exhaust tips, and packing into the rear bumper. Not to mention when running dirt/gravel, there's nothing to stop all that debris from being thrown all over the place, doing damage to exhaust tips and rear bumper ... and the unfortunate person who might be following a little too close behind...

Personally I think flares look nice but are functionally useless (unless you're in a mild climate and don't do much off-roading).

I can't believe there's not a company that manufactures a flare that also incorporates splash guards ... I'd tossed my OEM splash guards and had to pick up a set of WeatherTechs after I removed the flares. I wish the WeatherTechs were about and inch wider ... my tires stick out past them so they don't quite catch all the debris, but they're 100% more effective than the flares were.

 

in pictures #5&6 you can see that they weren’t then in #7&8 with the spacers they were sticking out past the flares.
