with stock rims and no wheel spacres and with 285's you probably dont want to get flares with additional wheel coverage as will look kinda silly. i have Xenon flat fenders but you need a larger tyre with less BS so it looks in proportion.

I like the idea of flat fenders as it gives you near on 100mm of extra guard clearance which is great

I'm a fan of the Hurricanes, although Warrior does a black diamond plate texture tube flare that is pretty sweet too - I just don't know what sort of coverage they afford.

I know Dave is planning to design some though Uneek, but not until late in the year. I'm holding out for that.

Hey sorry but from the front it looks a bit odd to me. I am glad you posted this as I was thinking of going the same route and I have the same ARB bar and 285s on stock rims. I'll keep looking and please don't be offended it's just my personal opinion... might look better in real life... and would look better with a stubby bar and spacers

Nice. Anvil is really growing on. Flares are good too!
