I agree with Knass; if you spend an hour washing it and getting it all spiffy, then have the luck to drive thru some morons sprinkler that's running across the road, all that hard work was for nothing.
I like the fender flares. I think they give the fenders a finished look when the tires and wheels stick out too far.

There's a little difference between a "scratchy filthy piece of crap" and getting a little dirt on the sides from a PUDDLE and whining about it.
For f'ing sakes people, you're driving HUMMER's, NOT ESCALADES.
Crap like this is precisely the mentality the morons in charge of marketting at GM had when advertising HUMMER, and look where we're at.
You got mud on the sides, it adds character. Same goes for scratches, dings, rock rash, etc.
DRIVE IT FOR WHAT IT WAS DESIGNED FOR.
That is all.

I think it was designed to be a great looking rig, that has awesome offroad capability out of the showroom. Now if you like to look at mud all the time fine. Give it a gooooooddd mud bath and never wash it. However, if you choose to keep it looking nice, and one teeny weeny little puddle screws it up, you have every reason to whine. Hence the Big mo fo fender flares. Should keep all the little stuff off the paint.

ROX - Thanks for the input. There are good people here who have given me helpful advice on rim widths, tire sizes, and now fender flares. Comments that don't attempt to help with questions asked don't need to be replied to. 
You may be right about the look of larger oem flares, so I've ordered a set to try myself. Your opinion was appreciated.
Regards.
