Will these flares fit over my current wheels, or do I need to go wider?

These are pocket flares, so they follow the factory wheel opening—they're not designed to accommodate significantly wider wheels. If you're already running the max-width tire for your suspension, they'll sit flush; oversized setups may require minor trimming or test-fitting before final install.

Do these mount at the same points as OEM flares, or do I need new brackets?

They mount at factory rocker and fender attachment points—no new brackets or drilling required. You'll use existing holes and fasteners.

Since these come pre-finished in matte black, do I need to prep or seal them before install?

The matte finish is ready to bolt on as-is. Once mounted, you can leave them untouched or apply a protective coating if you want extra durability against UV and road salt.
