How will it look if you can't get those tires again? Never cut your truck or car. Structural integrity. Not a good idea in any situation. Cut your truck to install after market plastic parts? Out of your mind.
You have no idea what you’re talking about. The tires will always be available. Cut out fender flares have been around for decades. He hasn’t affected any structural integrity. It’s not like the truck is going to fall apart from that little bit of fender trimming. He hasn’t done anything that many haven’t done before. He did a nice job with it as he too has done it before.
There always has to be one Mr. Rodgers 😢 Dudley Dooright!!! Go buy you a Honda Ridgeline! That truck is BEAUTIFUL ✊💪 The Ford Excursion is already a badass truck, but this guy took it to super badass level!
Fender heet metal is not structural. If hesitated cutting up the frame. That would be one thing. People trim fenders and smash pinch welds all the time for bigger tires.
