3" Wider aftermarket rear fenders - are they any good? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I would really like to get wider tires under my 56. I have 2 rebuilt 12 bolt rear ends, one is the correct width and one is 3" too wide...both have the same gear ratio and are pretty much identical. I'm thinking that the wider rear end with a wheel that has a more centered offset would work great for putting 12" to 13" wide tires under there, but I wonder how well those 3" widened aftermarket fenders are made and how well they fit. Does anyone have experience using them, or seen them on another truck?
