    Wow, that was quick! Thanks man! Doesn't really look like they provide much more coverage than the stock flares, no? This would be all about function and not so much about looks, for me. Actually im really not sold on the looks yet, so they would have to work damn well if I'm going to drop ~$700. I'm just really worried that my new wheel/tire setup is going to shred the sides of my truck. Trying to figure out what I should do about it. Are the pictures just deceiving? Have you noticed any improvement yet?

    They do add a lot more coverage. But it's just not that dramatic in the pictures. I installed my tires and wheels first to see how much I needed. And I asked everyone out there that had my rim and tire combo for pics and measurements. But I pass my state inspection cause they cover my tires and would've failed without them. I wish I had more of a lift with them on but I'm pretty maxed out on height without going with a RCD lift or something. I'm totally happy with them!

    It looks like your wheel/tire specs are almost the same as mine. I have 16" wheels with 4.53 backspace -12mm offset and tires are 285/75/16 duratracs. Ahh decisions decisions!

    I think the company is called Proven Designs. But my buddy gave me his extra set so I didn't have to order them. I was going to go with them cause they can actually print the 4x4 in toyota font if you like. But I don't need it for free flaps.

    It's going to be heavily dependent on where you take them. I've only looked into this as I'd probably want mine painted if I got some. From what I've seen on other forums I'd expect anywhere from about $250-400

    Where I'm at it's about $500 to paint. I had mine done by a buddy who hooked it up for $350. But if I had the area I'd have tried to paint it myself. There duplicolor paint you can get that matches. Just depends on what you are comfortable with.
