Baystaters,

Awaiting delivery of Nemesis Ind billy rockers and planning on upgrading the fenders as well. Right now I'm leaning towards the following and would love feedback for those of you who have or are familiar!

Nemesis Notorious aluminum: https://www.nem-ind.com/products/jeep-w ... flare.html

Poison Spyder crusher standard width: http://shop.poisonspyder.com/JK-Front-C ... 0-alum.htm

Crawler conceptz aluminum: http://crawlerconceptz.com/index.php/pr ... f-001.html

You may want to look at these if you like the PS flares. They are an absolute knock off of the Poison Spyder aluminum flares... And I mean absolute knockoff! Their instruction manual is page for page and picture for picture duplicate. They come all 4 flares powdercoated or bare for $750 if you search around and these also have all the inner bracing and structure that the PS flares have. We even threw them on the scale with a set of PS aluminums and they were the same weight. I'm not sure if PS licensed them out or what but the only difference I could find between the 2 were that PS uses 5/16 hardware and the BW flares had 8mm hardware.

Are they the same width as the stock fender flares? I've been looking at the Poison Spyder/EVO flares (Also the same, seemingly licensed product).

I will take a couple measurements for you. I'm sure they aren't STOCK wide but they aren't like the narrow fenders that PS sells either. I believe they are the same as their standard width.

@BlackKnight here are a couple pics and measurements for you. Mind you I run 37 x 13.5 Nittos on a wheel with 4.5" backspacing.
