Flare Extensions 70 mm — Jeep Wrangler JK / JL / Gladiator JT

Once a larger tyre goes under the vehicle, the body no longer covers it. Exposed tread throws stones at your own paint and at the traffic behind, and it draws comment at a roadworthiness test. An extension lengthens the existing flare and closes that gap.

This version adds 70 mm per side. The supplier intends it for vehicles with non-standard flares — the strip fixes to the side of the flare with stainless screws.

Key features

• Extends the body line by 70 mm per side without replacing the flare
• An extra lip on the strip limits sand working in between strip and flare
• Stainless screws included — 15 per strip
• Black finish, four strips per set (front and rear differ in length)
• Protects the flanks from stones thrown by your own wheels

Fitting and notes

Match each strip to its flare — front and rear differ in length. Hold it against the flare edge, then drive the screws slowly while pulling it lightly taut. The supplier recommends around 20 degrees C and 12-15 screws per flare.

The supplier states plainly that the photos are only an example of the fitment and do not show the strip width of this version. It gives no material, no strip length, and does not say whether a drill bit or instructions are included. Screw fixing means drilling into the flare — that change cannot be undone.

Do they fit factory flares?

No. This version is intended for non-standard flares. The supplier has a separate part number for factory flares.
