Rally Armor Custom Mud Flaps Released for Tacoma

Has anyone tried these? I want a good flexible mud flap that won’t rip off if I snag them off roading. I looked at rokblocks pretty seriously, but I think they may be too stiff. I want them to be able to bend flat if the ground requires them too.

Thanks!

Yea I wouldn’t waste $160 on those to stiff much better cheaper flexible ones out there plus the flexible ones you can cut to fit. Sorry the names escape me right now having a senior moment…

 

Could you be thinking of Rokblokz?

 

Yes thank you that’s the one

 

No prob

 

As stated in the OP, they seem too stiff. Can they aggressively bend without messing up your wheel well/mounting hardware?

 

I’d buy Plasticolor mud flaps on Amazon for $30 and have a better product.

 

I have the Rokblokz. Flexibility offroad was one of the reasons I got them. That said, they do flex, but they are also fairly stiff material. Keeps them from flapping and flailing at highway speeds I suppose. I ended up ripping one off and beating the hell out of the others when I neglected to take them off out in Moab. Did some moderate trails first and they survived just fine so I got lazy, the Top of the World trail really abused them. Pulled them off after the trail figuring they were junk as they were all bent, deformed, and I was missing some hardware from the one that got ripped off. To my surprise they eventually flattened back out, I ordered the missing hardware from Rokblokz for a few bucks, and they're back on the truck, good as new. I expected the hardware mounting points to be messed up, but to my surprise, they were all fine. I honestly have no idea how, but all the screws went back in their holes and feel secure, haven't had any hardware loosen up or come out since putting them back on.

I'm not sure what kind of offroading you plan on doing, but I'd say the Rokblokz are fine for light to moderate trails. They were flexible enough to handle some extreme abuse, and returned to form afterwards. The one that got ripped off, I believe got wedged between the tire and a rock, so something had to give. I'd be curious if the Rally Armors are even more flexible, but I think regardless, if they get pinched between something, they will come off. I bought a little 90 degree ratcheting screwdriver since then, so taking them off takes maybe 5 minutes. I'll be removing them if I do any (serious) offroading again in the future. I also think you need some rigidity, as they need to stay tight to the fender angle to not interfere with the tires (vs. drooping straight down). If you do end up with the Rally Armor's, I'd be interested in your take on them.

 

Here's some pictures to give you an idea of the flex. This was about as hard as I'd want to bend them by hand (moderate force) without putting more strain on the hardware.

Front (you can actually see a permanent indent in mine where it has contacted the slider corner, just noticed)



Rear

 

Nice, I've got 15 year old RallyArmor UR on our Forester and they look brand new..
I would rather go with their motorsport spec flaps for more coverage on the truck.

 

I paid $20 for some thick rubber ones and cut them to size for the rear. They've held up fine for 5 years.

I don't run front flaps.
