Can someone direct me where to find flares for a D1 to fit larger rubber. I found some fiberglass ones but at $1000 on top of the $2000 for rims and tyres it's a bit much, could get a 2nd hand locker for that. It's a 5 door D1

75mm Lucky8 Llc. - Take the road less traveled...

depending on the size tire you run. I personally like the 50mm better because they are smaller but if you're going really big you'll want the 75mm ones. Also if you're running less than a 35" tire these might make your tires look small and require a lot of cutting.

If you're only going 33" then I would find a set of used DII flares and just "Make" them work. There are a few post about this on the interwebs.

 

Also, I run no flares on my D1 with 315/75/16 BFG KM2's. So you dont NEED flares to run bigger tires.

 

Thanks, what have u done in order to run that size. I'm currently running 265 75 16 32's mickey tompson MTZ and they scrape now want to go to 285 75 16 33's at least but I'm chewing out the side biters now at flex. What mods have u made???

 

Where are you rubbing?
I have 3" RTE springs with some wedge spacers in the rear. I did a Camel Cut in the front and the rear. The rear quarter panel below the trim is also gone. I run stock alloys with 1.5" wheel spacers. I also trimmed the inside of the fender lips and rear doors, but none of that is visible from the outside. I run 11" shocks up front and 12" shocks out back. The only place I rub is on the inside of the wheel arches(immediately above the rear upper spring perch), and that's from the wider tires.
