Big Tire Rear Fender Modification | 06+ Sprinter
Larger tires often create clearance challenges at the rear of the wheel opening, particularly near the factory mud flap mounting location. Our Big Tire Rear Fender Modification creates the additional space needed to better accommodate oversized tire fitments while maintaining a clean, OEM-inspired appearance.
This service is commonly performed for customers upgrading to larger tire packages and helps reduce the likelihood of tire-to-mud flap interference during suspension articulation and off-road use.

Recommended Upgrade
For maximum clearance when running oversized tires, we strongly recommend pairing this service with our Rear Fender Clearance Modification. Together, these modifications provide additional room throughout the rear wheel opening and further reduce the potential for tire-to-body contact.
Important Fitment Information
Actual tire clearance depends on wheel specifications, tire dimensions, suspension configuration, ride height, alignment settings, vehicle loading, and other installed modifications. Additional clearance work may be required for some tire and wheel combinations.
