I've got the heavy duty rubber ones without fender flares. They do a great job of keeping the muck and slop off the truck.

You say rubber, but they are plastic. Regardless, I have the installed on my truck and they look great. They also help keep crap off the side of the truck.

If you scroll down you'll see the heavy duty rubber ones.

Any thoughts on the rubber vs. the plastic? I've been making more trips down dirt roads and would love to cut down on the crap getting all over my truck, does one protect better than the other?

The plastic ones are pretty but don't stick out far enough. The HD rubber ones provide more protection.

Mine are non-flared plastic fitted ones.
Not what you asked, but I like them, though I wish they were a little wider.

I installed the weather tech yesterday in about 30 minutes. They look good. The fit could be a little tighter but I am not sure any of the others are better. Paid $80 for all four including shipping, I have the flared fenders.

I'm looking at the rubber ones because I had the molded platic ones before and they scratched the paint. I got rid of them and had fender flares installed. From the pics provided, I think the rubber ones look good are functional and provide the best protection. Thanks.
