    Okay I won't do those fogs then, and I think the flares give it a more off road look don't you?

    i'm just not a fan of the huge flares. small ones like the factory FX4's flares like ours look good but not the fat flares. plus i think its kind of stupid to get offset wheels and wide m/t's and then cover them up with giant flares. Just my .02

    I have several small spots on both sides where rocks have taken off paint...
    So that's kinda what has me liking the idea of flares, plus I saw some trucks this weekend with them and they looked bad ass...

    that's the only reason I would get flares.. I have scratches in my paint from from my tires throwing rocks all up and down the sides of my truck

    I think your truck would look better without them but stopping rocks is reason enough to get them

    Alright if I'm running 35x12.50x17 Nitto trail grapplers on my 2004 f150 fx4 super crew and it has a 6 inch fab tech lift, what would be the best tire pressure for gas mileage?
