-44s.. Flare Rubber vs Factory Flares.. (1 Viewer)

[duncanrm]

I need to make some decisions on dealing with the pokeout from -44 rims to keep our local constabulary happy.

I have a set of factory flares that need some work but I'm not sure I'm a fan of the look. Am also considering some generic flare rubber.. what other options are there and what have other people done?

Sahara Style Wheel Flares (Aftermarket) for 60 Series Landcruiser - by FRP Flares

Ultimate style and class; the Sahara Style Falres. NOTE: flares are made-to-order, manufacturing lead time can be up to 3 weeks, we appreciate your patience!Sahara’s traditionally came with fibreglass flares; they gave them a stronger, thicker and even ‘stauncher’ look 😤 It’s hard to track down...

I have a full set of the above. They're getting prepped and sprayed now. It's a 50/50 shot on actually getting installed on the 60. Jason will make the final determination if they can be mounted - @seigeoverland was supposed to provide instructions a/o a previous install but never came through.

There's a company that makes under flares, kinda a hybrid between the rubber & traditional flares. I didn't bookmark them years ago but will try to find them again. If I do, I'll f/u and post a link here.

IMO - love the look of the factory flares!

You’re in Australia? FRP makes low profile flares too. You have to go through a dealer to order but you can pull them up on their site. I bought mine through horizon early Land Cruisers in NSW. Maybe check out the under lip flares. Here’s the supplier.

@duncanrm - these are the under flares I mentioned above. @dbbowen - nice!

Neato.. thanks all. I really appreciate the input. I'll post a photo whichever way I end up going.

Contacted Brady (with Horizon Early Landcruisers) about the FRP wheel flares. His reply:

The flares take some time to get a perfect fit, spent about 4 hours on mine but the fit is awesome. I sell them for $800AUD (+/- $520USD) + shipping.

This is the only picture I could find at the moment:
