I didn't order my 97 with the wide tires or flares. When I first go it, I
considered adding them (at $400) if they also prevented the mud thrown into
the door ... they don't. I installed the moulded factory splash guards
instead ($40), which do the job.
Recently, the local dealer brought in a nearly identical truck to mine (same
colour, options etc) with the
wide tires, flares and the flat style splash guards.
I think the look produced is different, but not necessarily better. My
truck is white (and the flares are
white). Perhaps a flat black flare would enhance the appearance.
