Hi, I own a 98 TJ and because of my 33 tires aren't legal for street use, I
need to replace my stock fender flares.
My question is which one must I buy: Bestop, Bushwacker, ...?
Appreciate any help.

Mike

 

Mike,
I have had the Bestops on my 98TJ for several years and they have been
great with 33x12.5 BFGs. As you know, these are slightly rounded and
bulging in profile compared to stock. Bushwackers have externally
visible bolts. You can't go wrong with either one. Just pick the style
you like!
Regards,

Guri

I have a brand new set of the Bushwackers without the external bolts
that I'd be willing to sell if you're interested. They look same as
stock but are wider. I never got around to putting them on my '98
before trading in for a WJ.

Those two are great choices. If you go with the Bushwacker Pocket
flares, buy some real stainless hardware seperately. Theirs is cheap
plated BS. Once you screw them in during installation, you breach the
cheap plate and they begin to rust.
