    Getting the full OME Heavy load kit Monday, hoping I would be able to run mudflaps on front and back to save my paint when I eventually get 285s

    I'm stock and not lifted. I bought some cheapies off Amazon, and they do a great job. I had Weathertech on my other truck. Can't say there are any discernable differences.

    I went with RokBlokz as well (found them cheaper on the BST). Before purchasing I looked into Rally Armor and the other various cheaper options out there. I happened to see the RA's on a vehicle in person one day and it looked like they aged terribly. Flared out and "frozen" in a swept back shape, I guess from constant air resistance. The higher end flaps cause some sticker shock but they will hold up much better in the long haul.

    I feel like oem works well with stock wheels. I have aftermarket wheels with 0 offset and it doesn't block the rock slinging as much but it's still decent. Looking at rekgens offroad xls for better coverage

    Thanks for the input everyone. I was leaning towards those tufskinz ones because I like the design - they don't overlap the fender flares. Based on all the praise maybe I'll go with those rekgen ones. Are the xl ones just wider then basically? I like the design of those too.

    Side note, I'm in nome alaska so I want some that can handle dirt/rocks/snow/ice etc. I'm putting 2.5 ADS shocks all around with dirt king UCAS up front. I'd like to go with the biggest ko2s I can fit and sounds like 265/75R16 (according to tire shop) to avoid rubbing on the mudflaps?

    265/75r16 fits stock suspension with no rubbing or cutting. I have the same right now and have stock mudflaps on without any issues.

    It works until you put some -10 offset wheels.
    Once i got my lift i could get my front flaps back on.

    I know this is several months old, but I'm in search of similar info. I had planned on the rokblokz, but their website says they aren't compatible with the TRD exhaust. So, are there any similar issues with the new TRD exhaust from RekGen or TufSkinz? Personally leaning more toward TufSkinz.
