    Yeah I hear you but at the same time I don't want to bolt on mud flaps and lose 4MPGs. I drive on long road trips and losing that much wouldn't be worth it.

    Thanks for the feedback.

    Like I said, you won't loose mpg.

    I drive a lot and mpg matters to my bottom line. So I monitor it closely.

    I got my rokblokz new in the box (2nd hand) for $50 Canadian. I work in the woods and they are holding up fine. I've bent them in various situations off road and they look new still.

    Plasticolor. See link in my sig below. Much cheaper than rokblokz and will rip or tear cleanly without damaging your vehicle if /when they get pinched.

    I went with these...they are pretty much just like the OEM ones (size, coverage, stiffness), but less expensive....

    I've got those now and after one road trip (2000 miles)they are all warped and look pretty bad. I even added an extra screw on the fronts on the inside edge. So I'm looking for something that's a little more ridged but still give some flex if I were to get stuck in the sand or mud.

    Just didn't want to lose much in the way of MPG.

    Funny, your rears are curled up, but my fronts are curled and rears are perfectly straight. I've already ordered a spare front set to replace at a later date. Might have to try different mounting depths to keep out of the airstream behind the tires.

    I have the shorter ones and haven't had the curling problem like some folks have mentioned. Do you have the longer versions?

    Those RBs look great. Would have got those if they were on my radar. I got the Weathertechs and I do like them.

    None so far
    I ordered from weather tech. There custom designed. They're high strength. Good price too.
