As much as I want them, I won't be paying that. I read that the retail is $395. If that the case $125 for postage 8O

See how you go getting them though - I bet you get "on backorder"

There's a reason the BDOR flares have the calmini part # moulded into them...

The material the calmini flares were originally made of was far too stiff and therefore brittle. The BDOR flares are as soft as practically possible - they only hold their shape due to their curvature - BDOR tried making TJ flares out of the same grade and they sagged just sitting in the sun.

The only thing I don't like about the BDOR flares is they aren't really wide enough. They are marginal with an off the shelf 7" rim and 10.5 tyre. Step up in offset, an 8" rim, or a 12.5 tyre and they don't cover enough.

If mounted properly though (every mounting hole used) they are almost impossible to break.

They were in the business section...

I had trouble with those guy's, quoted me one price including postage, then the invoice was double the postage..... 8O

Took over a month to sort out, by that time i was over it...

Anyone that says, "will cover 34" tyres"is pretty sus to me.

33s come in 12.5" to 15.5" then add offset ??

Its not the dia you have to cover, lol, its the width.

Is the 34" dia, 9, 9.5, 10.5, 11.5, or 100"

What is the offset, - or +, inch, yards.

That is just bullshit advertising.

On principle I would not use these for that small point alone.
