Bushwacker made fenders for the 5th gen!!

What are you guys who installed these flares running in terms of wheel/tire/offset?

These are slightly wider than the stock flares right, so I imagine the tires look recessed after installing these?

Currently I am running a 3" Toytec Boss lift, 17x8.5 0 offset wheels, 285/70/17 bfg KO2's.

I had to trim the fender lining and remove the mudflaps in the front. If I add 1.25" spidertrax wheel spacers to this set up, do you think I'll encounter major rubbing problems? I'm trying to avoid doing a body mount chop, but I really like the look of these flares and the wider stance.

I'm about 7mm further out and only rubs on front liner only. Only push forward but have not done anything further. i've clear the body mount for sure before my UCA's and after the UCA's. But to be safe if you don't want the chance to cut the body mount, get a UCA's and set to 4 + caster.

I'd love to see how these mount in person. I had to take around an inch off the bottom of my bumper and push the liners forward, plus take the mud flaps off and I still get a little rubbing on the front.

Has anyone paint matched these in MGM yet?? I haven't seen any pictures of it.
 
anyone? ^^^ [MENTION=132026]razorbill[/MENTION] [MENTION=105481]3wbdriver[/MENTION] [MENTION=137357]roozter[/MENTION] [MENTION=7957]Tengu[/MENTION] [MENTION=103040]nguyenn[/MENTION] [MENTION=117698]Moto69Joe[/MENTION]


They are roughly 1/2" wider than the factory flares. I posted the datum about mine earlier in this thread, as well as posting pictures. Everyone seems to think I need taller/wider tires. I don't agree, and since they are my toys I will keep them as they are.
 
I am running 265/75/20 Duratracs with SpyderTrax spacers. BUT I have done a BMC.

Don't know how you could have missed it. I know for a fact that I have mentioned on this thread that I had it done and I am pretty sure others have as well. So here is an upside down pic of my rig stuck in the desert near the Texas / Mexico border.

Oh good to know! Do you recommend I start at page 1 and work my way to pay 25 to find the pictures, or 25 down to 1??? You went through the trouble of posting a picture in reply to my post, why not just post one showing them right side up and clean?

Edit: I found some pictures of yours on page 20! Horray! Now, I can't tell if I am color blind (which, I don't think I am, when I look at my truck, it looks MGM, not black) or perhaps your camera sucks, but your 4runner looks black to me. Either that, or maybe your 4runner IS black, and you were in such a rush to post a smart ass comment, instead of being helpful, that you missed the part where I specifically asked if anyone had painted them MGM.

Edit #2: It appears that the latter of my assumptions was correct. According to page 18 (I ended up working from 25 towards 1, incase you were wondering), yours IS Attitude black!

Apologize, I did not know what MGM stands for.

That is much better than calling me lazy AND an *sshole. Apology accepted. I apologize for snapping as well. Someone pissed in my cherrios this morning and I 've been really fired up about it ever since. :hug: :sorry:

BTW, I have now went through this thread in its entirety, and there are no pictures of a MGM paint matched. :(

off topic, but do you have any sound clips of your exhaust? I've found plenty with people running an 18" muffler, but nothing with a 14"!
 
What are you guys who installed these flares running in terms of wheel/tire/offset?

These are slightly wider than the stock flares right, so I imagine the tires look recessed after installing these?

As it says in my signature I'm Icon UCA's, Icon Lift, Goodyear MT/R 285-70-17s, SCS Stealth 6. The offset on the Stealth wheels, -10mm. Backspacing: 4.30". I will have to cut more of the front although I can't say yet what I need to cut. I have already done BMC.

I wouldn't say recessed, but you decide. Look near the bottom of this page.

My wheels are 8.5" wide with -6 offset (no clue what the stock wheels are):

[MENTION=107460]Magnetic4R[/MENTION] Nice runner bro. Looks really nice. Does your flares have the black screws on them? If so did you request to get black screws instead of the silver ones? I just cant tell from the photo. Thanks in advance.

Thanks! I ordered the LUND black bolts mentioned a few pages in.

This may not help but somewhere on Instagram, there's a person that did color matched the flares in MGM. Looks pretty clean.
