How much extra width do the 6 style flares add to a car? It appears to be about 4"-5" per side. I bought a roller with these style flares on it and want to know if it will fit in the back of my 1/2 ton or if I will have to haul the dolly down to get it.

Brad should be picking your car up or delivering it back to Yeaman's Autobody by now.

There is at least one company out there making a larger version of GT flare that will let you get 11's under the back of your car. Doubtful you have these but it's good to make sure.

Maybe, depends on his age, we have only had the metric system for a little over 30 years here and we still have some hold outs.

But if you ask a kid what a foot is, they point at their shoe.

Some Canadians are bi-lingual, I guess a lot are bi-measuremental and of course we have some that a just bi- smlove2.gif

Bruce,

the tire rack on my trailer is 70.5 inches wide.....when I brought home the /6,
I had ~1 inch on each side of the front fenders

I did slightly scratch one fender flare while putting the car on the trailer...luckly it can be rubbed out.......
