Interest for High rise(pre-runner style?) Fenders Fiberglass - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

thanks for those pics that helps alot with clearance questions. it looks like you had to cut of the lower front of the fender too, just below that body line. I'm guessing from the pic of the truck on the concrete, that there's maybe an inch of clearance in that front corner? maybe just a bit more?
Also, roughly how much do the tires sit outside the body?

Sounds like 33's are more common.
Are there even many issues with the stock fenders and 33's with stock suspension parts?
Reason I ask is my tires are 265/60r16 and they are 29". I wouldn't think that 33's would have much clearance problem, maybe they do under full articulation?
Anyone?

Oh guys, please vote in the poll, this thread has had a lot of views and only a few people have put their $o.o2 in the poll.
Thanks
