does anyone have any ideas about flares for a XJ i mean bushwacker ones are a gimmi but they are $1000, is there any other options for us? i heard something about people using TJ flares but how and does anyone have any pics?

Does anyone make a knock-off of the bushwacker flares?
Nope! The only ones out there in that size but they are way too big unless running 33's or bogger. Makes any smaller tyres look tiny. Even all the guys that I know that have fitted them over their 33's and then gone to 35's so their tyres didn't look so small!
Use either rear TJ flares all round like Jimmy's old one or add to the ones you have if only needing more coverage and not more room.
Yea i reckon the Bushwackers look great but on Jaffas XJ, it makes his 33's look like 31's. But these days in Jeep circles 33's are the new 31, everyone has em.

Thats kinda the look I'm going for.
Trouble is, fitting 33s on an XJ and still having room without breaking/rubbing limiting what you can do.

If you're going to run Bushwackers then you'll need to trim anyway and 33's wont rub on the body etc. Biggest hassle with 33's is having to re-gear not making room for them, if you didn't need to regear you'd see my XJ running them.
Also talk to Wooders about flares for an XJ, I seem to remember he had something in the pipeline but that was a while ago now and it may not have come to fruition.
