Anyone running mud flaps with fender flares? My oem ones wont fit correctly on the flares, but im sure there are some that fit?

Also, does anyone else have the issue of when you get up to about 50mph, the wind gets into the doors and it sounds like they pop open slightly?

YES!! where did you find those? Do they bolt up to the plastic flares well?

I had the factory ones on it when i was running 265s. But our regulations state that the tire tread must be covered by either the fender or a flare. (some dont follow this state law) and now that im running 285/75/16s with just the flares, the road salt and snow is getting caked on the sides of my truck. I hate it!

Are they vehicle and year specific?

Well I have tried 5 times to upload 2 different videos of me driving from the house to the main road approximately 3/4 of a mile in over a foot of snow. But cannot get them to upload. After a few times driving in and out I took the tractor and scrapped the road so my wife can get her car out.

Did more dirt road driving after that
