    I'm sure this has come up a ton on the forum here but I have had no luck in sourcing the info I need.
    Is there any way to maintain the front mud flaps with 285/70/17's and a 3" lift?

    I removed them as it was necessary but if at all possible I would like to put them back on.
    Any help pointing me in the right direction is greatly appreciated.

    Cheers

    I have a Turd Gen but I’ll vouch for those RokBlokz. They work awesome and don’t kill clearance at all. They’re kick ass. Though pretty F-ing expensive for flaps. But buy once... cry once.

    I ran the O.E. flaps for along time with 285’s, I cut out the bulging part and the part of the flare behind it. E002716D-BA63-4FFD-885B-EA113F2293F8.jpgWasn’t noticeable unless you were looking for it and it actually allowed the flap to bend backwards and not break when it hit stuff.

    Another vote for Rokbloks. I put bigger tires on my truck and was rubbing the weathertech mud flaps. Ordered and installed Rokblok XLs and no more rubbing..

    Good choice! I won't run them but have seen someone that does and they work really well. Also from everything I've heard they are great and won't break off-roading

    Anyone have anymore feedback on these, are they worth the $$$. I'd like to see a few more pics installed and how far they stick out past the factory flares.
