[Prerunner1982]

I think a large wheel arch without the bulge is a good idea. It would make for a much cleaner look but give the clearance needed. I think perhaps 2 levels might be needed. Perhaps a wheel arch that is 2" or 3" bigger for the stock (or small lifted) guys only running 33" and wanting 35". And then a fender with a 5-6" larger arch for the guys wanting 40"s. I believe the small arch would be preferred.

I am not a 67-72 guy, mainly 73-87... a 73-87 2wd (no lift) with a fiberglass flared fender (3" bulge and 2-3" larger wheel arch) could fit 35" tires.

Without the bulge I believe only 33"s may have been possible. Just my $0.02.
