They are Fiberglass and very strong!

From the looks of that pic, he could have only cut off about an inch or so and not had them rub. Could have saved you a lil bit of money there

Pics can also be deceiving. I would have also had to cut the front. Forget that the tires take up some more room when the wheels turn and when flexing. Besides I like the tire coverage. Have to stay legal.

NOTAJP: So how much was the total damage for the front fenders? Those are 33's on there, right?

Should read the thread. The fenders were $270 plus ship. Those are 35" BFG AT/KOs on 17x10 wheels.

I did read the thread. I swear I shouldn't have given up coffee! Sorry. As for the tire size they didn't look like 35's to me. I was just double checking thinking you hadn't thrown the 35's on yet. Nice truck!!!!!

They are almost a true 35" tire. Are taller than a 35x12.50R15. Remember they are mounted on 17x10 wheels. The wheels are huge! I should take a pic with a tape measure next to it.

Hrmm nice what the backspacing or offset? If 35 ATs fit then maybe I could fit 37x12.50-17 MTRs with a SAS & glass

 

[NOTAJP]

The back spacing is either 4" or 4.25, I'll have to measure. I think 37s, glass, and sas would be sweet! Starting to think about rear glass now.

 

[beaston1]

btw...what suspension setup your running with the glass???... any body lift too??

 

[beaston1]

hmmmm..i wonder

hey NOTAJP, curious on your opinion about Perry's? Do you like bubbles? Hannemann's just don't flow. Why not update your exploder to a newer style or even put the explorer trac front-end on? You basically have a box with a bubble butt...

Wow, it's been over three years since I've seen this thread. A lot has been done to the truck since then.

My opinion? I loved the Hannemann's front fenders. They are built thick and fit very nicely. All the corners matched.

Since these pictures I added Perry's rear fenders and I must say that I WOULD NOT do it again. The fiberglass was cheap, thin and NOTHING fit right. They were the worst to try and fit to the body of the truck.
