Thanks for posting and the space between your tires and flares is perfect that's how I want mine to be.

Here is mine with 35" Toyos with RK 3.5" lift and stock fenders. I am running the recommended bumpstops from RK but their lift is rather crazy on flex! Almost pulled the entire flare under the wheel well!
That is what I am afraid of and the stock fenders aren't my favorite.

And I'm not really worried about rubbing the fender flare with my wheel the flat fenders would be more for looks than clearance because I have never had a problem in the past.

I want to put bushwacker flat fenders on my jeep so any pictures would be great.

Why are these flares so cheap?? They look good and are steel! Is there any reason not to buy them?
