Do you have tires that stick out? Post a pic of the rig and it will be easier to advise you.

 

Gotta agree with hemigreg on this one. Need some pics. I wan't to do fender flares also since I have some rust i'd like to cover up on the wheel well, but not until i get some different tires that stick out a little bit will I do it. I think they look a little strange with the stock tires, at least from the front.

 

I like my BW cut out style. They are an easy install. a little extra work when washing & drying, getting into those fake bolt cavities though.

 

my tires are factory size on the 20" rim like 04hemigreg's. I recently took off the "daytona" factory skirt -ground effects and i'm trying to get a more off road look to it. plus i have some DIY body repair on the top of the rear fenders to cover up. guess i'll go with the BW. if anybody knows any one who wants to buy a Quad cab daytona skirt package, let me know. thx for the info

 

I dont want anything called a skirt near my truck unless it is around an attractive woman's waist or she is holding it in her hands with a smile on her face. Lol

Seriously, though, fender flares will look odder than boddy damage on a truck with stock width tires, imo. Would fender trim cover it?

 

@ 04hemigreg, thanks for the tip. that is one of my fears is that i spend the money on the flares and then they look totally wrong on the truck. any suggestions on fender trims. Brand names? does bushwacker make fender trims. the one side i can cover with trim but the other side will be close depending on how high up the trim goes.
