Question Mud flaps on '99 E300 Turbodiesel

I just had mud flaps put on the wife's car and they look great but the fronts are longer than the back ones but they both hang the same distance off the road. Is it suppose to be that way?

We had them on our 98 W210, and that seems right. The C230 only has them on the front, so I can't comment on that.

You got the MB flaps, right? They're pretty nice.

Yes I got the MB mud flaps. Thinking about it (always dangerous...) the front should be a little bigger so when the front wheel turns it doesn't spray the unprotected area with road crap. They are really nice. I wonder how they'll do in the snow.

I too wonder how they'll do in snow, there's not a lot of room for buildup. We'll see in a few months...


Really like the way the MB flaps look though.
