Not to get off the subject, sweet rims but must be a bitch to clean?

Not at all. The Vossen HF6-5 on my last truck were though.

You may want to check again and make sure you are using the correct holes. I picked the wrong holes in the back at first but then figured it out. Mine fit perfectly and work great.

Could you share a picture of the front installed from inner fender because I still can’t figure it out

Just an FYI, previous post, the FULL-SIZE ArK work very well-I did add a personal touch.

Just to confirm….these are bolt on? No drilling of the truck? Any real world pics of how they work with road spray?

How would those pics work exactly?

If you’re referring to the large Ark splash guards, for the most part yes. The fronts use the OEM fender bolts. The rears do as well except there is an additional hole in the new guards that must be drilled into your fender plastic and you install their supplied push pin/rivet. It is the farthest inboard hole on the rear guards. Took a whole 15 minutes to install all four.

How does a photo work or how would one show the side of the truck with or without the road spray pattern? I have the before already sitting in my driveway. I need the after!

You'd have to run the truck through the same conditions pre and post install for the photos to have any meaning. That one.

They use existing fender liner bolts.
Minis do fuck all without factory running boards...together they block enough for my liking. It's the rocks I care about.

I do have the factory running boards and spec'd them for just that reason. Thank you.

Go with the Ark Minis then, they look the best...IMO.

I agree and with the combined coverage I should be ok.

The ARK splash guards, or minis, are ok to a point. I tried them. I switched out to the full mud guards; they work much better for my driveway. This is 600 ft. of daily testing to the highway, of which there is a few hundred more behind the picture that is also utilized frequently. Paved roads ok, gravel roads no.

Perfect use case for better protection if you’re on gravel vs paved more often.

Whoever did that gravel job did a really great job. Gravel porn.

You should see the upkeep gravel bills, that is a real screwing.

i was looking at the ARK Mini's. they looks great! But protection is very minimal. i live down a gravel road and have a gravel driveway and even with Factory running boards the RokBlockz i still get so light spray when its wet and muddy out so glad i went with more coverage. i'm selling my house in the spring so i shouldn't be on a gravel road much longer once I move i might switch over to the Ark's since i like the look and it should be enough coverage for daily use.
