Not if you have any kind of lift because you are spraying out the back.

Exactly, being as you have a lift you need mudflaps. Those fender flares aren't stopping all the road spray comming off the back/bottom of your tires. It's like when we safety heavy trucks, gotta have mudflaps :thumbsup:
But really there are so many 1/2 tonnes around here that are jacked 200" and don't have mudflaps. The police officer was pobably just having a bad day, and sorry to say found you.

My mud flaps don't do jack in the winter. I'd rather have flaps to stop snow from building up in my foot steps.
Hell, I built my own rock tamer for my trailers

Ontario is a different world. Roads where you are always clean.
Here they must throw salt and sand on the road to help us stay on it in the winter.

I got that same ticket last year along with many others.I took them to court and it turned out that youy can only be given that ticket if the roads are wet or raining out. If the roads are dry that ticket wont stand up in court
