I think it’s my alignment but not because it changed from the day I got it from the factory - I think my castor on the driver side has always been too negative as I’ve always noticed that gap is smaller. I can fix it but it’s annoying that there’s this much castor variation that I cannot even...
I don’t think I pushed the envelope at all. My tires are barely larger than yours and multiple people on this thread are running my exact tires with the Canadian flaps with no issues including @HCTacoGuy . Now I’m kind of concerned something is wrong.
if those are 285/70/17 Falkens that’s what I run and I can’t run the Canadians without serious rubbing ??‍♂️.. no idea why.. could you please show me how close your tires get to rubbing the mud flap at full lock
I’m running 285/70/17 and the Canadian flaps had me rubbing like crazy so I had to pull them off.. they have a big protrusion that hits my tire…. Odd nobody else is having this issue???
@TacoFreak - can you take a picture of how close your tire gets to the flap at full lock with the OEM tires? My tires are barely larger than yours. Maybe the added width is what makes it rub?
I never got an alignment done. But the candian flaps no doubt protrude into the wheel well quite a bit. I could probably move my castor forward but I’m not messing with that. Truck drives perfect. I’ve got PPF. I’ll live with it until I find the right aftermarket solution.
should I keep...
It’s all in the spirit of experimentation - ifs fine. I may put the back ones on. I’m just worried my alignment is off because I think others with 285/70/17s run these flaps but I’m not entirely sure.
Yeah. I mean my tires aren’t huge and barely a larger diameter than OEM. The Canadian flaps come half an inch or more. I won’t ever be going smaller than 33” so it’s either high clearance aftermarket flaps or these US OEMS.
Holy cow - my Canadians came in and they rub like crazy up front and I’ve gotta go back to the US turd flaps - running 33” Falkens — did not realize thr Canadians had a large protrusion
