They are wider, but require cutting part of the body out. If you are in NY, where they salt the roads, i would not recommend them as they will only make your truck rust out. Try the one step down size. They screw on, and if done right, look great and wont break up.

why are fender flares so expensive, it can't take that much money to make a curved piece of plastic for a fender.

cause they look good and are exact fitting. Could you really design and build a set of flares for cheap that look that good?

no but a company that makes numerous pairs over and over should be able to. They do look awesome though.

It's called supply & demand; the cornerstone of our economy!

who cares about the economy...they should still be cheaper than what they are...but you want my advise...go into Mexico...go to a junk yard...look for a Hilux(pickups) or the Hilux surf/Diesel 4Runner with Fender flares...they are built by Toyota for Toyota and look a hell of a lot better than after market ones.
