I am thinking of these for my Silvy. Bushwacker OE Fender Flares. Thoughts?

The ones on that hoe don't look bad. The ones on the truck pictured aren't my favorite but it may be more to do with the rim/tire and paint combination just not making those look right. If someone can photoshop them onto your truck they would probably be better but I'm still up in the air on it.

Exactly. That is why I was asking for opinions, I was looking at that damn picture and it kind of ruined it for me LOL. I wish they had a pic of an HD with some 33s on 17s or something.

Not bad, but :dunno:. Like Ian said, the ones for the Hoe will work, just not sure about the other.

I like the ones for the Hoe, but I would have to say no to the ones for the Silvy. I have seen a few of the NNBS Silvy's with various styles of flares, and MOST of them do not look right with the flared fenders/bodysides on the pickups. They usually look OK on the Sierras, but the body lines on the Silvy is not a good match with most flares.

I don't think the flares look good on the GMT900s because of the built in flare in the fender. Looks a bit like a flare on a flare to me.

The Tahoe flares look good!

I think fender flares lookg good on the hd's just as long as your wheels have enough offset...

It would look dumb if the wheels sat inside the flares

I have to agree with this. Because the shape of the fenders and bedsides is already "flared" the flares just dont look quite right on a GMT900 Silverado. :dunno:
Now the ones on the Tahoe, :thumbs:
