And, does anyone have anything good or bad to say about those Vortex flaps, fitment, etc.

I have them on mine and had a lot of compliments on them. Some think that they are factory flaps that come with the raptor. I like them because they match the heat exhausters on the hood.

Just realized I will have width issues with the garage door and the bulge on these wheels will exacerbate that, probably make it impossible. Does anyone know if there are similar wheels I should consider, flat black, very little chrome or silver accents, that stay within the fender wells?

I saw that the Fuel Octanes have a zero and a plus offset rim that should get you there....no rubbing yet. went to the top perch in front and looking for Deavers for the back.

Already bought and received the Vortex flaps- probably get the truck late this week. Still looking for that plus offset rim, probably the Octane 14s in 17 inch but I want to check out the stocks first.

Hey, thanks man. For a show truck, I wouldn't bother but for a little daily driver protection, I think a couple of these on the front only look about as good as flaps can look on the Raptor, especially on a black truck where they blend in best.
