So ive been rocking 32s on stock wheels which surprisingly stuffed inside the flare so ive never had to trim before but i just picked up some 33s ! I like the look of my stock flares and i think the fronts will be ok for now but i know the rear is gonna get cut. Wondering if anyones done this? Id love to see what it looks like

Thanks!

Crappy picture but anyways.

Fenders have been trimmed and the flares mounted back on.

3" front about 2" in the rear. i just noticed my front axle is pulled back a bit so once i get it stretched out im not going to have to worry about the fronts, my shocks only allow about 4" of uptravel so i think my fronts will be fine. The rears however aint gonna work. And yes i do wheel her once in awhile it's mainly a dd however

Holycaveman i dont agree with everything you say but i do admire what youre doing with that rig of yours. did you modify those flares at all or did you just bumpstop to keep those big ol girls from rubbin?

Edit - missed what you said about the flares its been a long day.. what exactly did you do and how much more clearance did it get you?

Well the fronts were totally removed fender wells cut 2 or 3 inches. Then re installed. The rears were cut out quite a bit with the front flare mount being the only mount left. Then fastened them in the back part.

Went wheeling last week and had it bumped great. But a tree caught one of the rear flares and I lost it. Dam it anyways. So i just took them off. LOL
