    Just bought a new 2022 tacoma. Thought I'd check to see if anyone had recommendations for good mud flaps? Thanks in advance!

    I just installed TufSkinz last night and love them so far. They have some flex to them which is nice. They also do not contour over top of the fender flare like the OE flaps do. I've experience damaged to the fender flares in the past due to this design thanks to the weight of snow and ice in the winter.

    EDIT: I should add that the TufSkinz are also adjustable side to side so they can stick out further if you have wider tires or a more negative offset wheel.

    If you like to get off the beaten path and want/need semi-flexible, then check out Tuffskinz or Rokblok mudflaps.

    If you're primarily pavement pounding with the occasional fire road or beach, the stock mudflaps are pretty good. They don't shed snow too well though, not without trimming the lip at the bottom.

    I went with RekGen. I've had them for about a year and I really like them.
    They fit well and I like that I was able to adjust them to fit the offset of my SCS wheels.
    Granted the included hardware wasn't that good but it was easily replaced.

    Gotta jump on the RekGen bandwagon, it was the first mod I did. They have a good bit of flex and I like the angular edge aesthetic. Not terribly pricy either.

    If you want rigid flaps, Weathertech should be on your list.

    What wheel offset and tire size are you running?
    Are those rekgen stock or offroad XL?

    I'm really looking to get better mudflaps for when I get my lift and 285's.

    Weathertechs, little stiff but not likely to cause issues for me. SR with no flares, so I had pretty limited options. My 04 had factory that I really liked

    33" KO2 285/70/17 on 17x8 0 offset. They are the XLs. That's what Rekgen recommended and they were spot on.

    Also nice that you can get the Rekgen lettering to match. I got the cement lettering

    coming back from the other no boring shift knob thread, anyone knows any not boring mud flaps? I have red mud flaps on my 4Runner and they look badass or hideous depends on how you like them, but so far I haven't found any mud flaps for Tacoma that are not black
