Subject:Re: Fender Flares - custom made

So, is it safe to say with stock tires, or even 205/65/15 tires (which I
understand are the same diameter as stock), the Postal flares would work
flawlessly? Or would they cramp the style of even these tires?

Then again, the TriStar arches that are apparently a little bigger--would
they interfere with a stock tire?

Sounds to me like some of us are considering the application for 2WD rigs
with basically a stock sized tire.

Although I'm out of the snow these days, back east that dirty,  cold pants
thing was a real PIA. And of course I only remembered it  would happen right
after my butt got cold and wet--again.

thanks,
Jeff
