Nope... Factory flares will not cure this. I've got 'em and I get water
waaayyy up over the hood and cab when I hit a puddle... Then again, I like that
sorta thing :-)
I do recommend the mud flaps though. They keep rocks and crud from chipping the
paint behind the wheels. They look good too, IMO.

I have the '98 CC 4x2 with the Tire&Handling Package. The tires are
just a hair wider than the body, and going through even a tiny puddle,
splashes nasty muddy water over the sides of my nice white, waxed paint.
Nasty. What I wonder is, will the factory flares and some mud flaps
help cut this down, or do I need to go aftermarket? Anyone use the
factory flares? Did they help stop the water spray? I get spray from
the front bumper on back, sometimes even on the windshield. And I
am on pavement, just crossing dips in the the road that have water in
them. City water, on Los Angeles streets. Realy nasty.
