Default JK Fender Flares

New to Jeep and the forum. I purchased a used 2008 JK and have begun the "process" of making it mine. I use the Jeep mainly as a daily driver but trying to get a certain look. I just replaced the tires to Nitto Grappler 305/60/18. Already had XD 18" wheels and wasn't ready to spend the money to change and wanted to keep the overall diameter close to stock for speedo and tranny. 1.5" spacers and 2" leveling kit installed. The Jeep came with Smittybuilt XRC flares which are very narrow. I blindly (live and learn) purchased a set of Barricade Rivet Style fenders as replacements but they are huge. I like the look of the flat flares like the XRC's but being a daily driver I can't take the constant dirt on the Jeep. A small puddle covers the Jeep. Long story short, looking for recommendations on flat fender flares that have that open look but have the coverage for the tires. Probably need 10+" of coverage on front and maybe 5-6" on rear. Thanks

I'm a huge fan of MCE's. They sell both stock width and narrow. I like the stock width

I've never been a big Rough Country guy, but bought set of their tube fenders for son's JK and their pretty nice. Well priced also.

I just called them and they stopped selling the Metal Cloak Hardline Fender like 6 months ago- Guess I have to decide between Poison Spyder Crushers which look just like the Hardline or go with MC's Overland fender. decisions.. decisions....

You going to go aluminum either way? That fender weight sure adds up fast. They're both nice products, though the PSC reg width sometimes looks like Dumbo ears out there.....my preference is the narrow. I like the angular tapered look of those Overland flares too though. If you have additional armor or are planning on some I think you need to think about it as a whole package look and which you like better if you intend to add along the way.
