I just got my Bushwacker flares from USA as the other thread states
Now I have them I am wondering did I do the right thing???
When I hold the flare up to the guard the wheel sits about 3" inches inside the flare. Admittedly my wider Simex tyres have not yet been tested against the width of the flares yet....
Ok my question is:
If my tyres sits too far inside the guard will my zook look uber Grimace and if so how much would I have to backspace the rim to make it look ?
In all honesty its a zook its gunna look Grimace either way...
just kidding Heath i dont know pics would help heaps with ??????? always try them on and see what it looks like otherwise just offset the hell out of the rims
94 HJZ 80 GXL 4 Inch lift 35s. TJM Accessories Front to back
Good purchase, from what i have read in the US, they are meant for up to
15" wide tyres, anything less may look a little effeminate. They will look cool either way, just may need more offset on your rims?

I don't know if thats GOLD
GOLD? not really... I think 'out of place' would be a more suitable description than "effeminate". Flares that are too wide for the tyres looking more characteristic of a woman than a man? Has nothing to do with it! Thats why i think trail tough should make different sizes for us downsized zookers ..... so it doesnt look out of place or "stoopid"!
ude i may require them when i get the lux diffs under
should be wide
TOYZUKI 96 coily zook,lux diffs, 3 inch suspension lift,3 inch body lift, 33'sMTRS,series 4 hopper,power steer,twin air lockers,4 LINK front and rear,2 inch spacers(GOT WIDTH)
what rim size are you running 15'' x 7'' (road rims)
are thay 4'' backspacing ??
id increase your BS to around 2.5'' (15'' x 7'') if possible
and for your simex tyre us 15'' x 8'' rims 3.75'' backspacing
or mod 15'' x 8'' to achieve 3'' BS
that way ull increase your wheel track buy 100mm -4''
or dont fit the flairs keep them till you do you suspension upgrade (long link.custom coil suspension) & fit hilux diffs
you know you want to
if not you know someone who will need them sumtime this year
same as wats on my zook now, there 15x8 with good offset.
