Need some advice

Well I got pulled over the other day by the state police....rear bumper too high, tires stick out to far, no mud flaps
Anyways, I do need to put some flares on. I was wondering if any aftermarket oe style flare will cover a 12.5 inch tire or will I have to go with something bigger. I would really appreciate it if I could get some suggestions on brands and/or styles. I definately don't like the look of cutouts, something with more of a factory-like appearance. Thanks

I put bushwacker fender flares on my F350. They were easy to put on and they cover the wheel well. The only thing I have not done is added mud flaps to them. I have not found anything I can modify that looks the way I want them to. I put a picture in my gallery if you want to look at it.
