Truck is a 2010 2wd XLT with a 3" lift and 235/75r15s. I've been eyeing the Bushwacker oem-style flares, but am on the fence. I like the way the flares make the truck look beefier, but from some angles they look weird on the regular cab. I'm also not super crazy about drilling holes, but my bed has some rust showing up anyways, so...

Should I go for it?

Here's the truck as it stands today:

And here's a black regular cab Edge with the same wheel/tire size combo:

Nothing wrong with the way they look on a longbed 2 wheel drive. With lift and large tires looks good. If I were top go that route with my 2 wheel drive, I'd opt for the flares.
But, I'm keeping it stock, with stock tires, so flares would look out of place.

I have a white single cab Edge 2wd with the OEM fender flares. I like the look. I'm keeping 2wd, so I'm going with a wider tire/rim combo to give it that beefy stance.
 
I think your truck would look good with fender flares... but I also think to complete the look... it would require a new set of wheels... 15x8 3.75 back spacing. Those would widen the stance to fill the new flares.
 
I prefer to remove plastic crap instead of adding it. :derisive:
