Bushwhacker Flares

Does anybody have Bushwhacker Flares installed on a 3rd Gen with 285/75/17s on TRD pro wheels. I’d love to see pics if you have this set up, or really anything remotely close to it. Really like the look of the bulky flares, but don’t want my tires tucked too awful badly. Let’s see what ya got TacomaWorld!

 

well, a guy with 265/70/17s with bushwacker and trd pro wheels rubbed like hell so idk.

If you do it, please have some sort of lift on your truck because you'll need it

 

I have 4in of lift

 

you should be good with that. Have you trimmed anything before?

 

I have CMC and removed mudflaps. That’s about it. I didn’t think I’d need to trim anymore to add flares

 

you should be good with that. Are you gonna have the flares painted inferno?

 

Nah probably just the flat black

 

Bushwackers aren't for OEM wheels, either you need spacers or more offset to push the tire out.

I despise aftermarket flares after installing many set.

 

It’s to my understanding the Pro Wheels stick out a half inch further than the ones that came on my truck which are TRD Off Road

 

This is negated by offset. They sit flush the same.
The pro rims are 12mm less offset. Roughly .5 inch.

 

So you're saying my stance would be completely fucked by these flares lol that's why I wanted to see pictures before I bought em

 

Bushwacker flares look awesome even if the tire is in a tad. The regular flares on Tacos look like Ridgeline engineers designed them, they are so bland and non aggressive. Painted the color of the truck is the way to go.

 

Do you have a set on yours?

 

Yes.

 

I have them and have no complaints.
