Default Mud Flaps ?

Hi There,

New to the site, I need some advice..

I have an 05 GM Duramax, 6" ProComp lift, 20" US Forged wheels with 35" Cooper STT's..

I'm driving lots of gravel and the tires are chewing up my paint.. Also, when its muddy, the tires throw up so much mud I can't see out of my windows.. LOL.

I have no other alternative than to put on some mud flaps. I have thought I might put some big cut out Bushwackers' too.. But for right now, a nice mud flap should help, something wide enough to cut down the gravel and mud ? Any suggestions, I would like to put them front and back.. I know they don't look the greatest, but other than trashing my paint, I guess they will do the trick.. !!

Help ?

Thanks.

J

Welcome to Diesel Bombers J! Glad to have ya!

The first mudflaps that come to my mind for a lifted truck might be something like these from Iron Bull.. They are a vendor here.

Another option is posting in the price request thread to all of our vendors,


Here>> Price Quote - Request A Price - Diesel Bombers


And see what all they can offer you so you have options.

Those Iron Bull ones are nice for sure.

It doesn't sound like you really want mud flaps though so why not think about some type of rocker protection? You could get some paint to match LineX or some of that clear film that 3M makes put on. You can get it in like 6 or 8 inches wide.



I believe some of our vendors here carry the 3M stuff.
