The mavericks were my wheel of choice before I went AF as well. You will like them for sure!
Message heading your way.

Thank you sir......

Finally was able to install my hood this weekend. Still waiting on the fenders but I couldn't wait to install the hood......so I decided to plasti-dip it from the time being, came out pretty good I think

Cleaned the $hit out of it and prepped it for the dip

Started underhood first.....

Raised ram air portion doesn't stick up too high from behind the wheel

any word on your fenders?

Well.....I about lost it when I went to call the number and it was disconnected, so I emailed and this is what I got......at least they haven't charged my card yet.....I might cut my losses and go with someone else like Fiberworx, I was just trying to stay with the same company for everything

I was about to ask how you liked your Fiberworx fenders, they looked great......did you notice much of a rise out of them in the wheel well area? And last question how far out do they stick out? Do they just barely cover your tire or do they cover it a good ways?

 

[Cutting-Edge Diesel]

I liked them there were some alignment issues and the finish wasn't paint ready.

they have the same wheel opening and stick out 3.5''

 

[SSpeeDEMONSS]

McNeil has been around for a long time and they're not going anywhere. Not likely shady either. I would definitely try to get more info on the status of your stuff though.

probably getting paid at work to post this from my POS phone

Alignment issues kinda worry me, but as long as its not too bad, I can work with it. Not being paint finish is ok, as I plan on wrapping the truck a few different times before I decide on final paint

I didn't think so either, as I know they are a big name in the offroad racing scene, but the number being disconnected was noooooo bueno

Alignment wasn't the right word.... They have good alignment with the hood and doors but the lower brackets that bolt to the pinch welds on the bottom or the cab were right and didn't set flush up against it no big tho I just shimmed it out more.

I see what you are saying......how wide are your wheels? Would you say the tire sits flush with the fender, or does the fender still stick out further then the tire?

 

[Cutting-Edge Diesel]

I have 17x9 -0 rim with 35/12.5 tires and the fenders are slightly wider than the tires

OK so with a 0 offset, you have a 4.5" back spacing, give or take.....

The wheels I ordered have a 4.75" back spacing with a lip that has just over 5" at 5.1".....soooo that just might work

 

[Cutting-Edge Diesel]

here is a pic

Damn that 35 looks alot narrower than mine Matt. Wonder why?

 

[Cutting-Edge Diesel]

maybe because you see all of it because Of the open bumper.
