Default Do I really need my damn wheel liners?

I hate em. Totally unfounded hate......but hate none the less.


I will switch from my CAI to a SRI. Try to keep the muds if possible. I asked a tech
at work and he said it shouldnt hurt anything.

True?

You should keep them because they keep road crap from getting behind your fenders and rusting them out, yadda yadda yadda, stuff like that. I know there a pain mine are held in with about ohhhhh 20 screws a piece every few inches to keep them in place and out of the way of my ******* wheel cause there all retarded ever since my paint job.

Default Clean vs travel

I had mine off and everything gets nasty dirty. I would definately not take them off again unless you want to get lots of suspension travel into the fenders...but at that point, the car usually wouldn't be for driving everywhere. I had to open my doors and hose out the junk every week during the dirty seasons in AK
