Thumbs down

Well i'm looking at getting a new set of fenders sometime this summer but i cant choose which i want. Currently i have the stock fenders and my tire will bite into themwhen i make a turn and hit a decent sized bump. So my options are either to get a wider fender or get a new set of stock ones and roll them. Personaly i like the feed fenders which give you another .80 inch and look pretty good. But how do they hold up? With that giant cut that goes in, i can just imagine how many rocks and stuff off the rodes gets kicked up on to them. Or are they diff then they look? I dont really know of any other fenders so if anyone knows about any other good aftermarket ones that ware wider please let me know. Thanks guys.

You mention "getting a new set of stockers and rolling them". Why cant you just roll the ones you have now ?

The RE ones wouldnt look right w/o the matching skirts. I dont like the Panspeed because of the hard crease on the top. IMO the Feed fenders are the smoothest looking but definitely look into that 3M paint protectant film because you will have rock chips the second u turn the wheels over
