Stereo stays around 7 at highway speed. Normal conversation volume over the noise. I get more road and engine noise than wind. That’s running 35/12.50x20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on. Two door Badlands/sas/lux. No rack.

I would describe it as loud AF. I live in a coastal area that is always windy. Cross winds are especially bad. The problem with mine and others I’ve seen is gaps in the weather stripping. This one is right above driver and passenger head. Stuff some craft foam or other shit from your wife’s craft room in there and it’s more bearable.

I sent pictures of my own weather seal problem to my dealer, and I'll be dropping it off with them for a day to investigate. Along with other little things I've noticed.

They’re Ford Performance… right out of the accessories catalog. Of course, in my opinion, they look awful on the catalog photo. Based on it alone I never would have picked them. Fortunately they were installed for the original order customer on my Bronco before they backed out of the deal and I thought they were pretty cool on the AMB, especially combined with the wheel and tire package they installed as well. Hope this helps!

Thank you. I have a 4 Door Black Sasq, I want to get those as the existing flares gathers snow and I dont like it, with these the snow would slide off once its accumulated as the design is not to hold the snow.

I have seen a video where the snow stays on the OEM flares and they cannot open the rear door.

2Dr BL SAS - No Rack, No Lights. I live at the base of the Sierra Mountains and when I drive into or away from the wind, the noise is not too bad. Its certainly no sedan or enclosed vehicle but for a convertible its within normal ranges. When I drive across the wind and get the strong cross winds coming off the mountain its REALLY loud. In fairness its fairly loud in my Subaru as well but the the Bronco is another level. Anything below 55 MPH and I don't notice the noise at all.

Four door MIC Wildtrak, and unless i get a good gust of wind i barely notice anything at all. Still in the break-in period so i haven't really had it above 65mph. The only thing that constantly catches my attention is how shitty the speakers are.

Those are not Ford Performance. They are Bushwacker flares.

As evidenced with the previous posts, wind noise is subjective. My soft top Wildtrak is quieter than my F150 and a hell of a lot quieter than the the CJ’s and TJ I’ve owned. But then again I’m an old fart so I probably have diminished hearing anywho.

Well, they have a Ford part number. From a Ford Catalog. Have Ford logos stamped on them. Installed by a Ford Dealership on a Ford vehicle with Ford paperwork covered under a Ford warranty.

They did indeed work well in that regard.

Cool. But the ford accessory website has 3 flares listed. Air Design, Bushwaker, and Ford Performance. If someone buys the Ford Performance flares they will get standard Sasquatch flares. And the same Bushwakers can be bought from a ton of online vendors like 4 wheel parts for a lot less.

Good thing I included the catalog page with the part number on it then. This way they can order these if they like them.
