Im pretty sure in Washington its 3" of tread can stick out of the fender flare max, and the mud flaps have to cover the full width of the tread down to the center of the axle or centerline of the tire, so basically half of your tire from the top down. I would imagine if you stuck with something like that you would be just fine.

Well let me put it this way I was wheeling on private property(city property turned into private I didnt know) and a city cop and state patrol cop pulled me out and told me that I was trespassing and that was all they said was wrong. She must havve done something small so the cop pulled her over to see if there was more the mud flaps were jest a reason to pull her over my roommate is an intern cop and he say they pull all trucks and suv's over on party night to look for drunk drivers (I live in a college town) even non lifted vehicles "need mudflaps".
