MUD FLAPS

MUD FLAPS- VARIATIONS AND BENEFITS

Mud, debris, and sludge are the low key enemies of your car. They get kicked-off from wheels and get splattered across the back and sides of your car. Now you can’t always avoid puddles and dirt roads. In the end, it’s all about being fully equipped.Mud Flaps or splash guards bail you out of these situations. They’re simple car accessories that minimize the spray of mud, sludge, or debris onto car body. Just like other car components, aftermarket mud flaps are also available at leading automotive stores like Parts Engine. There’s a wide selection of splash guards in the market. While choosing the right mud flaps for your ride, keep the following things in mind:

Cut/Non Cut Flaps

Cut or Moon Cut mud flaps are intended for use on the front side of car. They have an arch shaped cut on the top that provides tire clearance. Rear end non-cut flaps have mounting holes for rear support brackets.

Stainless Steel Accents

Heavy duty rubber flap can be accessorised with stainless steel accents which are small steel plates to be mounted on its front side

Universal or Custom Mud Flaps

Universal fit mud flaps can be used on any vehicle and can be cut to fit a specific bracket. On the other hand, custom fit mud flaps are designed according to the vehicle specific brackets.

Tire width and mud flaps

Mud flaps come in variable sizes that may differ from manufacturer to manufacturer. Refer to the manufacturer's size chart to know which splash guard goes with which tire width. It's a helpful tool to determine the right one for your car.
