Thinking of ordering these .Black oval for my RR truck. If I had blue jeans like I was going to get, i'ld get blue ovals. Seems a good price? https://www.sharptruck.com/cart...also I'm thinking of getting 285/75-18's.....anybody have issues with oversize tires hitting any of the flap/mounts?

I was set on getting the 6.7L logo flaps, but SharpTruck couldn't respond to my email. I went with DuraFlap. Top notch customer service. They offer logos, too, or custom logos.

What are most people getting size wise for SRW? 23"-23" or 23"front-26"rear, 26"-26"? I saw a post that the Ford Gatorback is 23" front - 26" rear and wondering if that is the path I should go. I was going to go 23"-23"

I am running the 26 front 26 rears and they fit and look great. I have 325/65/18 BFG KO's on the stock Lariat rims with no lift and they very slightly touch the flap at almost full turn. I run winters on steelies but before I put the summers on I will hook a stainless cable to the fronts to hold them back about 1/2 inch just to be safe.

Found the Gatorback Ford F-250 2017 blue oval front 23", rear 26" set with mounting brackets on sale at Sharptruck.com for $420.
Seemed like a good price - ordered a set. Looking forward to getting them on.

I'm hoping to order a 2019 F350 DRW later this year, I'll be running the DuraFlaps on it. Just not a fan of the Gatorbacks or the extra no drill bracket you have to buy. I'm currently running DuraFlaps on my '11 F350 DRW and have never had a minutes trouble with them, they've been on since day one and 171K miles later. To each they're own, that's why there are options out there.

^^^ x3. The "6.7 powerstroke" gatorbacks on the back and "blue oval" gatorbacks on the front made a fine addition to my F450 King Ranch.
The backs are a pain to install. They should have had the needed 10 slots pre-cut IMO. BTW, a jigsaw with a narrow blade created the slots between each pair of holes I drilled quick and easy.
