Just made up some lawn edging flares for my vit and there was enough left over to do another set, and I was bored.
Measurements are approx. 110mm for the fronts and 121mm for the rears (based on LWB wheel arches, don't know if SWB's are different).
PM me for Pick-up address cause I'm not posting, don't be lazy
Cheers

Just curious, how wide are they and what did it cost you per meter?
I need some flares badly but all the proper ones are fucking expensive!

They're 75mm wide so I reckon they'd be wide enough to fit your monsters under them. You can also get them as 100mm wide if not...
The 75mm was about $2.50 a metre and the 100mm was $3.20 from memory, and they come in 10 metre rolls which is enough for 2 sets, apparently  .
I would have loved some proper flares but for 25 bucks I'm more than happy settling for these.

Oh shit, I guess i'll make a special trip later this week then. Too bad the closest bunnings is about an 1.5hrs away.
100mm would probably be better for me anyway.
Cheers for the info

You might want to call ahead and make sure they have them, 1.5 hours to find out they're out of stock would be a right kick in the teeth.. It's just called 'Lawn Edge', ALM Industries product, 100mm x 10m is the one you'd be after.

Mate, $80 from clark rubber isn't all that expensive. they have 2 sizes to choose from, I got the smaller one which is just perfect.

They are pretty solid, really dense plastic stuff. I thought they'd be sort of floppy (lol) but they are quite stiff (giggity).

Maybe the Clark Rubber near you, but the closest one to me (1.5hrs away) want about $20/m, and from what I measured I want 6meters
