I here you, I absolutely don't want them on there but your approach obviously isn't enough in my case. I idle down the driveway and take it easy if there's loose pee gravel on my road (only 1/4 mile to blacktop) but still get chips. I'm certain most of it comes from gravel wedging in my tread that doesn't come unlodged until you reach a decent speed... I can hear it. As you can see, they pick **** up easy lol.1/4 mile of (steep) gravel driveway, another 1/4 mile of chip n seal county road, all maintained by me.
I feel your pain.
That said, no mud flaps will ever grace Fred's flanks because - well, he ain't a pickup truck.
I can say that after several years of having the GTX up here on the ridge, that there's been next to zero
damage from rocks and stones - because I'm from TN and we know how to drive on gravel, mostly.
Of course, I don't go all Dukes of Hazzard with driving on the stuff, either - might want to use flaps if
that's your desire.
With me, enthusiastic driving begins when we hit hard surface. Before that, all due respect is shown both
the gravel and the GTX (and therefore, the neighbors as well!)... as it should be.
I'll check into that, that was my original thought but didn't think it would be thick enough to absorb a rock?
I want to avoid any metal ones, they look like bloody hell after taking a few rocks plus I don't want shiny... Shiny would draw attention to my mudflaps lol

Yes something fairly low profile and black like those is what I was thinking.
