The Bushwacker Fender Flares (shown in pic 1 of the original post) retail around $679.99 for a set of 4... these are painted to match your vehicle color(I believe). The "rubber" black ones run about $450. I've been dying to get these ever since I got my JK, but I'd rather spend the money first on a Rough Country lift, KC Rockstar rims, and bigger tires.

The WARN front bumper retails around $571.99 (according to Quadratec.com)... but this doesn't include the winch. Add another $200-400 for that, depending on how stong a winch you want. Although, Costco has some great winches for under $300 bucks that are tested for over 3,000lbs. You might want to check it out.

Most all-terrain tires are gonna run just under $200/tire (figure just under $1000 for 5... you need a spare, right?)

Hope this helps.

Hey Heath,
Glad about your new job

I am lifting my Rubi on Sat and getting the tires and skids on at the same time. Should be a long and wonderful day.

If you like I can drive around your house until you finally break down and spend some money

If you have the itch I would say mod what you got. The dealer markups on the "Jeep in a Box" is just crazy Besides doing it yourself will make you feel better about it.

If so what size are they, would they fit on my stock rims - would they rub with no lift, how much generally are they?

I like your tires alot!!

yeah i just got mine a week ago. i am running the 315/75R16 they are a 35" tire. on 16x10 kmc enduro wheels. with a 2.5" lift i rub the slightest bit at full turn pegged to one side if i move the steering wheel a half inch it doesn't rub. for everything installed it came to roughly 1700. which is cheap considering everything that was done. all mounted and balanced ready to roll.

that was for four tires and four wheels. if i need a spare i drive by the place i got them and they can order me in a tire in a day or two. i love them though totally agressive but quiet on the freeway no complaints at all, chicks dig them and tons of compliments
and yes with stock wheels you will most likely rub alot more. i dont need any spacers on mine though they are set very well

A few others stated oh the jeeps there are over priced, believe me I know that I would never trade my JK I love it!!! It is just so hard driving past all these sweet jeeps, I want all my mods now!!! One of them is burgundy with a 4 in lift and 37" tires and a powerplant on the front blah blah blah.

I guess I will try and just look the other way when I drive past it everyday
