Stupid question about 20" wheels

Do you need to have fender flares for the staggered 20" setup with 315's in the rear? Is anyone running them without flares - how do they look

Thanks
JD

Many guys run the staggered 20's without the flares. Great look and no issues with the tires sticking out. I put 30mm spacers to bring my 20's out to the edge of my flares.

No you don't need fender flares.

Guys, thanks for the quic response... I had read another thread where someone said they needed them, so I wasn't sure. I want to get either staggered 19" or 20" wheels but don't want the hassles of puting the flares on

Thanks again
JD
