cubalz and others - stunning trucks !!!
love the riveted look and got the approval from the 'Designing woman' in the house so I want some....
my issue though is that the new 350 is primarily a tow vehicle that I'll probably keep the stock Platinum 20" wheels and tires on...
so a big flare with a stock tire will just make the already too big air space above the tire even bigger !
Wondering what can work to fill up the wheel well and offer a bit more body side protection without being too large ?

I agree.
I remove my wheels/tires in the winter and go back to stock. Needless to say, the truck looks terrible for those months...

Hi guys, I just bought me some too. they are in paint right now!! and you can see i need them BADLY!!
I like the way the truck sits but not so happy about my tires sticking out. The flares should fix this nicely!!
Keep the pics coming. I will post some pics after i get them installed. Loving this site!!

Here is a picture of my newly installed flares from the front. They are Prestige brand flares and these are the RX style. They have a texture molded into them to show less scratches. Other than being a little shiny out of the box I'm liking them. I got them to keep mud/rocks from destroying my paint. I got the wheels/tires for the wider stance and now don't have to worry about damage as much.
And from the side. They cover an additional 2" from stock. Works perfectly.
Camping this weekend I tried them out, and got mud on the trailer but hardly any on the truck.

Well here it is a year and 5 months later. The flares are holding up nicely. No rust on the hardware or anything. Just thought Id update since I saw the thread being current again.

I have had mine for over a year too!! GREAT products!! and I get complements on them almost every time I take her out!!
I only wish they came painted to match. The 250 bucks to get them painted was a cost I had not put in the budget 
Great looking truck BTW
