I was disappointed with the bushwacker with the way it is actually attached to the jeep but they look great. If you're gonna offroad a bunch and bang them up, I'd get something stronger

Sorry Denis, I was lazy! Burton is correct, it stands for River Raider Off-Road.

if you think they are mounted to the jeep with two sided tape that is not correct. the two sided tape is strictly the rubber trim. they are solid. you can sit on the flares and they wont move. They are much more solid than stock flares.

How bad does that ultra wide stance sling crap on the side of your jeep?

Slings mud all over the Jeep. I'v got mud stains on my top from some nasty mud that won't come off tried using everything under the sun to get it off short of diesel fuel. I really don't care about the top though. As for the rest Thats what a hose is used for.

Exactly. It's a jeep not a Lexus, right? Lol

My buddies tj looks a lot like your jeep, stance wise. He has 12.5 wide tires on 12" rims and no flares and can't keep it clean for the life of him. Lol. Looks cool though, and people make sure not to get in your lane.
