EGR Fender Flare Installed

[Redneck Garage]

These look really good, but the problem I have with them is how tiny the tires look now
and we know you really can't go much larger on the tire size.

I emailed EGR - I love the look of the flairs but would like just a bit less flair which would match the
EGR OEM style flairs. They usually produce more than one size flair for each vehicle.

Hi ! I see you have released the Maverick Fender Flares -

EGR RUGGED FENDER FLARES SET OF 4
22-23 Ford Maverick (Crew Cab Pickup - Bed Length: 4'6") SKU: 753594

Will you also be coming out with an OE style for the Maverick ?
Thanks ! David

Hello,
I have forwarded your question on to our development team.
Thank you for reaching out to EGR.

They look like baby tires now, makes me do a double take...like that's not right.

Oh the curse of flares…I added them to protect the paint from crap coming off the tires, but because they make the tires look too small….now they force bigger tires to go on, defeating their purpose.

I think these are the best option for a wheel well flare that I’ve seen so far. There are compromises with any design as the vehicle was created with these add-one as a consideration but I think the smooth appearance and the color match to the rest of the plastic trim balances out, especially for a off-road look. Not sure how they would look on a lowered truck, just might need bigger wheels and wider tires to fill them out. Well done OP, this is giving me something to think about for my FX4… which will hopefully be a done deal this week with a private sale.

So Baloo, how far out from the truck fender do the flares extend???

From EGR’s website …

I saw that, but it also depends on the kind of truck you have. One would think larger, full size trucks may get "up to 2 inches of flare", but it looks like on the smaller Mav it is a little less

From Realtruck's webpage, they extend out 1.5"

Sorry guys, had some things come up and have been unable to get the photos ans measurements I was asked for. Will do once I get to feeling better.

...yeah, I noticed that too; also the 'splice' on the Front-flares where the plastic bumper joins up with the metal fender.
'Glad I went with the FordAccessories flares instead...decidedly more finished-looking than these.
Though at the time I ordered mine I was not aware of any alternative (cheaper?) product, I would still have chosen the more expensive set in the Ford catalog.
It helped that, at the time, Ford was offering a 30% discount. Still, they were a lot more expensive than I expected.
So, in sum, the 'EGR' flares look good...but the Ford-ones look better.
And the rubber gaskets were pre-installed at the factory.
Very easy installation...less than an hour from start to finish.

Do you also have Ford rear splash/mud flaps?

I have the Ford accessory model splash/mud flaps, and was hoping to find something that fits with them. If so, any install issues?

Picked up the flares at @Realtruck dot com.

I think they look great as I like the smooth look rather than the Bushwacker bolt look.

Instructions were great, install was about and hour and a half.

Only thing that sucked, and not sure why EGR doesn't do it during manufacturing, is installing the rubber gasket that goes between the flare and the truck onto the flare. Needless to say, I used a few choice words during the install.

They make such a difference. Just ordered these as well. Your post sold me. I assume I'll have some choice words when it comes to install day also.

They look very sharp!

Hey, my wife is convinced that you put smaller tires on the back than the front, and she want's to know why? I'm pretty sure it's an optical illusion, but "happy wife, happy life", so I'm asking.

The price of the Ford ones is why I didn't buy them.

I hesitated in getting the AirDesign flares because of the price, but when Ford ran a promotion (I think it was 30% discount) I pulled the trigger.
No regrets.
These EGR flares look good too, but not as good as the AirDesign in my opinion.
The EGR's look larger/bulkier, and that joint on the front ones really looks bush-league in comparison.

To spend 30-Grand on a new truck, but then quibble about a couple hundred for a desirable accessory, seems wrongheaded to me.
