Ken, I've been meaning to ask you, do these fenders have vents that separate like the stock fenders, or are they built into the fender?

I currently have 18x9 + 25 ( with 15mm spacer) = 18x9 +10 on my feed front fenders (25mm wide) and it is "almost" flush with 275/35/18 tires. I'm talking between 1-4 mm to be absolutely flush.
your 18x10 + 38 is the same as 18x9 + 25. The difference between 10 and 9 is one inch and half of one inch is roughly 13mm. Offset are measured front the center half of the barrel so the difference in 1 inch equates to a difference in half an inch when translating to "offsets." 38-13=25.
your wheels basically protrude outward the same as mine except you have a 285 tire , which is suppose to be 5mm wider (total of 10mm for front and rear of rim) and you are working with a 20mm fender as opposed to a 25mm. You have a total of 10mm less ( 5mm from tire + 5mm less length of fender) to worry about. I have a 15mm spacer.... which is almost flush... That is why I mentioned a 5mm spacer should be adequate

Damn, that sucks. I was hoping to pull the fronts out a bit more than that. Oh well, we'll see how it sits. On my stock fenders now (which I rolled and TRIED to flare with all my might), my tires are damn near touching the fender. I have about 5mm of clearance probably, it sits REALLY close...I can't even get a fingertip all the way in there. I figured since I didn't really get much pull on the front fender that I'd need more of a spacer for these. I'll see for sure once they get here I guess.
So on the fender vents, are the mounting holes in the same location as stock fenders? And will stock vents work in these fenders? I assume so since they are based on stock fenders.
