OEM Mud Guards

Why Buy Genuine Ford Or GM Mud Guards?

Mud guards, or splash guards, are the shields located near your tires. While many view them as merely a decorative exterior accessory, they actually serve an important purpose. Read on to learn more.

What Ford And GM Mud Guards Do

As you're driving along, your tires collect -- and then cast off -- all manners of road debris and water. The mud guards help to prevent that from collecting in the wheel wells and on your vehicle's undercarriage. That, in turn, allows your wheels to continue turning freely in all directions. It also helps to keep rust and corrosion from building up on your underbody, where you won't notice it until it's far too late.

The Types of Mud Guards

Cars such as the Lincoln Continental typically get plastic splash guards that mount directly to the wheel wells. SUVs and trucks, like the Ford Explorer or Ford F-150, are more likely to be equipped with rubberized mud guards, or mud flaps, that offer the durability you need when traveling on rough terrain. If you're not sure which is best for your model, check your owner's manual.

When To Replace Your Mud Guards

Eventually, though, even the best splash guards will suffer too much wear-and-tear. If yours have, or if one's gone missing, replacing them is the smart move. Your manufacturer designs theirs to meet your model's specific dimensions, offering the most secure protection on the market today.
