Do I need fender flares with 32x11.50 on stock alloys?

I am speaking of 2nd Gen... Does anyone have a picture? How close the tread is, is it over of the fender? Is there any problem to drive with 7" wide wheels and 11.50" tires, recommendation is 8-10".

NO, not until you change to an 8" rim. Your offset will stay the same but you'll gain an extra inch on the outside of the rim, That's if you go 8". With your factory alloys, your tread should still be under your fender lip. Someone should chime in with some pics. 11.50 is fine with 7" rims. I've seen guys run 12.50s w/o problems.

i'll be gettin some soon. its okay to mount that on the 7" wheel. its not optimal. you might encounter center tread wear because the 7" wheel is pulling the sidewalls of the tire inwards. damn i wish i had gotten new tires before i quit the tire store. i was lookin at just over 400 for 4 32" mastercraft durango a/ts or something like that. i nice cheap generic with mean all terrain treads. now i'll be paying at least 460-500
