Did you set them up properly or just bolt the rings on in place of the beauty rings?

I did the true install,I have a tire machine at my business.It was time consuming with the torqueing of the bolts,but well worth it on how the stance is just a little wider and the tire just looks so much better this way.

Maybe if you never travel farther than Starbucks that’s ok, but if your truck ever sees dirt roads, you’re going to want protection for the truck.

Nope. It's truly a 'to each their own' thing. I live off a short dirt road, so even just regular to-and-from the house I collect rocks in the tread that get flung around once I hit the asphalt and speed up.

Still ain't gonna do mud flaps. I don't know what it is... they just look awful to me on most trucks, but doubly so on the Raptor.

But I ain't knocking those that want them, just sayin' that it's not only Starbucks cruisers that avoid DESTROYING THE LOOK OF THE MOST BADASS TRUCK EVER MADE with those godawfully hideous things. ;)

Found a deal on FB marketplace for a really nice ARE Overland topper with roof racks. I replaced a Retrax cover with racks. With all the RV travel we do, I found we needed the extra dry storage. Big difference in terms of usable, secure and dry space vs rolling cover.

That’s quite alright looking too.
