i got some RA urethanes on my car. i personally love them, BUT

my buddy was driving behind me the other night and when we got to our destination, told me the flaps just wave in the wind when driving. he said it looked stupid on my car. "like an 18-wheeler," he says to me.

do they really flap that much when driving? i dont really care that much cause they do stop a lot of stuff form kicking up and they do look killer when the car is stopped. he planted a bug in my head. i have to pay attention to other subies with flaps to see for myself.

I've seen the basics and classics flap a bit but not the UR ones.

Thats why I was confused why my buddy said they were waving in the wind at only 40mph. The urethanes ARE nice and thick. They do have some give, but thats in case they catch a speed bump or something. I'm also on stock springs, maybe a drop helps reduce it a little bit.

I think I'm going to have someone drive my car and see for myself.

I have the UR ones, because they flex and will bend. Plus I wanted to buy them once. I am keeping mine all year
