I've had them on for about a month. Just wrapped up my first wheeling trip with them last weekend and I am very happy with the flairs.
35" tires and rock krawler 2.5" max travel with no rubbing.
Plus they stand out a bit, little more different with the vintage squared look.

Birthday gift from the missus. Wanted something to allow me to run 35s without a lift (for now).
I like the almost Willys style to them.

Default flares

I'm looking at these to, for the extra 1-2" of tire width they cover...

but I'm thinking they will make my 35s on 3" lift look small :( lol.

That looks AWESOME! I've been thinking about running something similar to what you have minus the body lift. Do you think the body lift made a big difference for you?
