Rally Armor mud flaps help

For those who run them my question is do they flap around loosely at high speeds? I was looking into purchasing a set until I saw a Subaru the other day on the highway just flapping away all crazy like a dog with big ears hanging outside the car window. I don't wanna be looking like that so hopefully you guys can confirm lol...

Carbon side extensions help and look better. Problem with mudflaps, at least those ones, they make the tires look like bicycle tires.

As far as helping, my friend had them and he threw a rock and cracked my windshield. So I can speak from those in the cars behind. lol I didn't notice his flapping around though. I have seen some that look good. Not sure if they were a different brand or they modified them somehow. Overall I think they look better on the subies for some reason.

Subbie dude didnt install them right, probably because it wasn't stage 2. They do not flop around and actually do work if you install them right. Pull them towards the out before tightening them and do not tighten as hard as you can. After tightening them, go 1 round right (loosen)

They DO flop around since they're made of flexible polyurethane and not cheap PVC. They still get the job done and in my opinion add much more aggressiveness. I've had mud flaps on all 3 of my Evo's and my brothers WRX & Evo and they all flop around. Has nothing to do with improper install.

I'm had them on my '11 GSR and they did flap around. I could notice enough that I didn't put them on the '13 MR
