Anyone with fender flares.........

Do they work to stop the road spray when it rains? My truck is filthy within minutes of driving on wet roads because of the road spray. I don't mind it being a little dirty but I mean it just gets really dirty from driving through the smallest amount of water. I was considering fender flares but I don't want to waste my money if they don't work. I'm also hesitant to buy them because then I will want wider tires!! My wife will kill me!!

Re:Anyone with fender flares.........

I bought the heavy rubber dodge mud flaps...supposed to be "anti-spray". BS. Looks like a monsoon behind the truck when it is raining. They DID reduce the amount of crap that would get on the truck. Doors and sides stay cleaner than without the flaps. I am pleased. Maybe this will help in your case.

IMHO I really don't think the flares will help with this. However, I do like the look and want a set of BW flares.

The wife is not hearing it though :

I have Bushwackers Extend a fender flare. Yes they stopped all my water spray and I think they look really cool. After changing to 16x8 wheel with 3.6 backspace, I was spraying the side of my truck with with even a mild rain on the road, now nothing. I also have mud flaps front and rear 12x18's. JC whitney had the best price......

Hope that helps,
Rich
