Default BW flat flares

anybody have any pics of LCOG builds with BW flat flares on?

im thinking about putting them on with my 4" and 33x10.5s? any ideas on whether it'll look good? would wheel spacers help give me that fuller look?

I like how those flares look but i wont ever get em. They get really beaten up on tight trails. Also, stay away from wheel spacers. Do it right and get new wheels with the right backspacing.

I have a 3" with 33's with no flares. I love how it looks. Do you have to have flares(is it a law?) or do you just want em?

Not a darn thing wrong with wheel spacers either. Installed properly they are perfectly safe. I wouldn't have put them on my son's rig if I didn't trust 'em....nor would I be selling them.

Under the vendors section h.o.r.e has steel ones that are SUPER sweet, but will run about a grand for all four. Maybe they'll go on sale!

Why would you run into a tree?

If the trail is that tight....it's not a jeep trail.

i have to have flares, its pa law, and the local fuzz are pretty big d bags...otherwise id just cut them. i have good aftermarket wheels too, AR outlaw II's with 3.75 bs, i want the wheel spacers to help fill out the wells better since the 33x10.5 with the flares will look narrow?
