PS Crusher flare question + other brands to consider?
I'd like to get a real set of fender flares soon and I'm fairly partial to Poison Spyder. I like the look of the narrow front flares but for some reason only see the rear flares for sale in a wide or standard configuration. Is there no narrow version for the rear? Is it going to look odd with narrow fronts and standard rear flares??
The second part is what other setups do you guys recommend? While I like PS, their prices are definitely higher than I would prefer to be paying currently, especially if I can get a similar look/quality from another brand.

good luck.

If you wheel, I'd stick with a quality company. PSC (y, they sold out, but it's still a good product), EVO, Metalcloak, GenRight, and Cralwer Conceptz. I only have a CC skinny rear bumper and have not had a customer service issue myself, but I have heard things in general. I'd only consider cheap Chinese knock offs if you never leave the pavement and just want the looks. This is one of those things you get what you pay for in both fitment, finish, and sturdiness (ie....if you're bumping in to rocks and trees occasionally).
If your state allows it, fenderless is an option too...and a much cheaper one. I've been fenderless for 18 months or so and love it. I like the look, and I love not having to worry about that crap on the trail.

I'll check out some other brands.
If I did go with the PS ones, is there no narrow rear? Do people just run a narrow front with standard rear? That seems odd.

I'm running the Crawler Conceptz fenders and the design, fit and finish are great. Very solid and durable. I'm running the narrow fronts and standard rears, which actually are narrower than the fronts. They look very similar to Poison Spyder if that is the look you want, and are made in the USA.

I think the rear fenders are just as narrow as the backs of the front fenders. Meaning only the front (forward edge) fender is wider or narrower depending on the style you get.

I have the Front narrows and rear standards. PSC designed the narrow fronts to be the same width as the standard rears... Lol makes no sense right? But the narrow fronts and standard rears are the same width while the standard fronts would be a little wider than the standard rears. I've had these fenders on since June and love them. Biggest pain in the butt to install but once on there they've been great, I can stand on them and jump on them and not a problem, even banged them into a rock and tree or two and not even a dent. Just scratched up my rattle can paint a bit
