The MAYA fitment looks dope. Also looks like you have a decent fitting tire on there as well. Nice and wide front and rear. :thumbsup:

looks good, but that is a super thin front fender. the fist time the tire comes in contact with the fender it will bend/dent. sticking wiht the silver or going a custom route?
