Default Should I get fender flares?

It's time for me to get my truck inspected again. Last year I just screwed some sheet metal in my wheel wells for it to pass. Should I just get the Bushwackers? Will it look ok? Or look stupid? Thoughts greatly appreciated.

Go to Rough Country. The fender flares are made by Bushwacker but for around 130-150.00. GO to their site. I am really pleased with the results!

I think they would look fine on your truck. I would also think with those bigger tires you would get more rocks, dirt, and mud thrown up so they won't only look good but they will serve a purpose too. I say go for it.

Search for pictures of Supercab trucks with flares on before you pull the trigger. IMO, the Supercrew looks much better with flares than the Supercab does. But hey, that's just my opinion.

I only like fender flares when the tires are even with them.
When the tires are tucked under, they make the truck look like a bad OEM Nissan with those ugly flares and street tires.
