Flares for +1mm offset
Just installed my 4" lift and new 20x9 +1mm offset rims and they stick out a little further than I wish they would. I really dont want to get flares but with inspection and rock chips I think I should look into them. I did some searching on the forum and have information overload. I am mainly interested in those with the +1 offset. I do not really like those huge flares. I saw one thread with Lund SX? I think I might want to PTM

Most "pocket flares" are either in 2.38'' or 1.5'' (front) coverage. Bushwacker is the most popular, but also most expensive brand. They offer the two different sizes. Many others don't list so you might have to ask. You'll want the smaller one for sure. Rivet style or smooth extend a fender style.
The Lund flares have a slightly smaller profile, but a little more coverage than the OEM "street" flares.
Painting will cost you ~75-100 bucks per flare.

I have the Lunds on my truck, they offer 1.5" of extra protection. Probably should have the large pocket style flares as I'm running -12 offset but I hate the way they just cut off at the bumper when looking at the truck straight on. I was going to PTM them my self but after seeing how they look natural, decided to keep them that way.
They flow right along with the body lines.

I aslo have Lund Sport flares on my truck. I am running a -13 and often think that the perfect offset for them is between 0 and -13. A +1 offset will be tucked under them just perfect. Mine stick out past them a little ,but love the way they look and the functionality is great.

Rnlcomp: With +1 mine stick out further than yours; correct? I like the fit on those. I am going back and forth on leaving them black of painting them.
The tires stick out flush with the factory side steps
CRAP, I do not know why they are sideways. SORRY
Here are pictures of what I am working with.
