Mudflaps, Has Anyone Installed Them Yet (OEM, Husky, Weathertech)

[NowZoomer]

So the OEM ones don't keep the debris/dirt from flying onto the side the vehicle.....?

They are flaps not flares

I installed the Husky (58201 - Front & 59201 - Rear) flaps and love them! They were super easy to install - took about 45 minutes for front and back. (I did have to remove the back wheels - simply turn the steering wheel to install the front.)

I'll be happy to take more pictures if you'd like.

Do they do a good job of keeping dirt/debris off the side of your SUV?

Yeah, they do a really good job at keeping the debris contained to the wheel well. I noticed a big difference after installing them compared to before.

They do. I've avoided several rock chips already.

My Tahoe is black and one day of driving in the snow and the side of the Tahoe is covered is all the road debris....

I know exactly what you're talking about!!! The Husky flaps I installed won't help a lot... my sides are covered with salt. NowZoomer said it best - these are flaps, not flares, so the muck still goes right around them and hits the side of truck.

I would agree mostly--they reduce, not stop the muck. You'd need flares and wheel skirts to stop most stuff--but even that would not stop everything.
