I can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere.

I have seensome people that have fender flares on there xB. It appears as though the wheel extends out past the stock fender. Do the stock fenders need cut?

My thinking is since your wheel extends out further than the stock fender when you go over bumps the wheel will bounce up and hit the stock fender. Is this true?

 

Depends on how low you are.

 

I thought that would play into the factor as well.

 

I wanna get a set soo bad ther ejust soo expenseive

 

Buy them and find out...

 

They might have spacers. Post pics if you get them.

 

With the flares on the xB you will need to run 0ET rims for them to sit flush. If you dont have 0ET rims then you will need spacers for sure. I will be running spacers for sure....

 

with this option, depending on how low and how stiff the suspension is will determine if its going to rub againts the fender. the flare is there to give the flush look(the right way), and I believe here in CA you might get a ticket if the tires are sticking out far out from the fender.
so cutting the fender really depend on the rubbing factor(which I hope you don't have to.).

 

Funny thing about the flares is they mount to the part of the fender that would need to get chopped. At least the ones I have this is the case...

 

...and where did you get your fenders..or what kind are they..? i've only seen one type..and thinkin bout coppin them from scionsport

 

my buddy cass has a set of Firmware carbon flares on his box. his wheels are 15x8 with a 0 offset. he's lowered on Tein S-Techs and we had to roll his fenders a little bit. He's not running any spacers.

 

any pics??
