I'm not sure if I'll get away with it like this or not?

I'm thinking that this is the way I'll go. Judging by the photos I've posted so you think the one inch would be enough?

After that, it can get quite expensive. |
I'm thinking that this will be what I'll be doing thanks Nanook. Providing they'll be able to cover the tyre? Went out today and definitely see the point of flares covering the tyres [emoji23]

Yeah tell us what offset the wheels are or what size 16x8? and what back spacing or offset? Then we can advise on what will cover them.
If the outside of the tire is more than an inch out of the new fender then you will want 2 inch. It depends a bit on if your goal is just not to draw attention or to actually have them covered, stop the mud from slinging, and avoid the possibility of a fine I guess.

Thanks mate, much appreciated. I'll get onto Gordon at the local tyre joint and get back to you.
Merry Christmas to you and your family too.

And yet... first time you get it into a cutting or deep ruts you'll see the wisdom of having the tires sticking outside of the guards.... its a no win situation 
You have to make the call, how much on the road risk are you prepared to take vs off road practicality ?

That's a good point too. Maybe I'll just wait for the boys in blue to make the request before I get them?
