Default Which fender flares?

Currently have stock fender flares on my 2010 rubi unlimited. HAVE 3.5" lift with 35" nitto trailgrapplers. Wondering what kind of fender flares can I get that will give me more tire coverage than the stock ones? Guy I work with got a ticket because his wheels stick out to far from his fender flares. Also, the side of my jeep is always dirty from the grime thrown back from the front wheels. Normally wouldn't care, but when the top is down and the doors are off and cruising with my daughter, I don't want mud and dirt splashing up on us.

thanks

Default You could try Xenon ..

If you search or Google you should be able to find a picture - they're flat fenders obviously but they offer a regular and a "wider" size. The wider ones are pretty big .. I didn't like them myself (switched them out for some Bushwackers) but if you're looking for coverage - especially from the winter slush up there in Ontario - then they might be just what you're looking for.

Sahara Steps work well for that ... instead of going with bigger flares ..

The "wide" Xenon's are really the widest choice over stock. Front mudflaps are really your only choice to stop the grime and mud from the sides of your JK.

yea dont go with the bushwacker .

i just put on some bushwakers on mine and i love the look but wen i bouht them it was for more tire coverage and the salesman told me yes they are wider but they are the same size as the stock one .

i think the buswaker are nicer then the xenon but fore more tire coverage go with the xenon ..
