Holy Negative Camber Batman!


Since you don't have flares, those tires will destroy your paint.

That is bad. I have seen worse. Last night I saw a Ford Escrap that had some really bad bearings. The tire must have been at a 30* angle! I dont know how people drive their cars around like that and think it is safe. I wanted to stop her it was so bad! But then she pulled into the casino........

Yeah but flares look super ugly. The only truck I've seen I think flares look good on are the S-10 ZR2's where they come stock. They look good. Well the Izuzu troopers I think look better with them too. Other than that I think they look like crap and are really bad looking on Dodges imo. I also have a buddy that had a Ranger he put them on and he said it still threw crap all over the truck with the tires just not quite as bad.

I like the way flares look on our trucks. I see a 1998 Ram everyday that has Mopar ones and they look great.

I guess i'm different.

Nobody likes my grille.
I love it.

Nobody likes flares
I love the way flares look.

BTW ZR2 S10 flares look awesome!

Yep, I have seen the biggest flairs produced for our Dodges (like Bushwhacker 3 or 4" ones) not really do didly squat for keeping mud off the truck. I honestly think it is just a looks thing (or in my case, to make it legal cause a cop was being a *****) because they don't really work worth a sheit. Mine have been laying in my attic for about the last 6 years, so you know how I like 'em. Anybody want to buy a set of medium size Bushwhackers
