Do you trust the quality of rough country's 5inch kit to last 5-7 years?

Yea they are really expensive. I was just looking for something to complement the tire size change. What accessory would you recommend?

Im just not a fan of any flares lol. We get soany kinds coming through. They do make some smooth flares I don't hate http://www.bushwacker.com/search-results/make-model-year/2015-gmc-sierra-1500

 

The 2nd extend a flare are ok. We done lots on new trucks. They look the best of any flare I've seen but im still not a fan lol.

I put a 2" level kit on my truck specifically. It lifted so I didn't have to get flares.... That's how.muxh I hate then ha

Thanks! Does taking the air damn off decrease MPG? I'll be sure to post some pics when i get everything installed!!

After removing mine, I did notice a slight decrease in my mpg. Before I was averaging 15.6 - 16.2 and now I'm down in the 14.2 - 15.1 range. Not a big deal IMO since without it being shown in my face on the cluster I probably wouldn't even have noticed. LOL I do think it looks better though, but again, that's my .02 cents.

I removed mine after two years and they started eating through my clear coat on all four corners. I don't recommend them.
