Default Bushwacker flares question.

I ordered some bushwacker cutout flares last week. Hoping to get them in the next couple days!

Got a question though. Generally, How much more tire clearance do you gain with these fares?? Im running 3" lift and 31" tires now

Depending on how much you cut I would say 2-3".

Running 6" lift and 35's with no problems at all with BW cut-outs. They did make a huge difference in all the mud slinging! I can actually still see now.
