I've heard good things about Xenon flares. Better fit and for 95 and newer

In case you haven't actually felt a set of these, they're very hard plastic and because of the way they mount if they hit anything wheeling they'll break. My old Bushwackers were a little bit flexy but these are rigid and have no give. I don't think it will be long before I drag it against a tree or hit it on the ground and shatter one. Something to think about if you plan on wheeling with them. ....Steve

I've already hit rocks and stuff with mine they have scratches in them but haven't broke yet.

Grumpy,

I touched a tree with mine and cracked from one of the bolts to the edge of the flare. Not a big deal at all but if I had hit any harder I think it would have wrecked the flare. The way they're mounted there's no way the flare can flex, it will either break or wreck the body panel.

yea I was expecting the mto break but looking in rearview they do flex some.
but I agree it seems they will break quicker then the TRD ones.

Maybe it had something to do with the -18 temperature or the way it hit but mine didn't flex at all. Hopefully I won't be running them into many more trees. .....Steve

my front bushwacker flares are both broken from stuffing the tire up into them. I'd just take them off if I didn't think the paint would be messed up under them.
