which mudgaurds are better: Weathertech or Kia OEM?

[Scarletmango]

Hi all,
Its that time of the year when my Telly, in all its full Wolf Grey SX/P/N glory, is finally arriving!!!! I had ordered a Black Copper back in September 2021, then changed color to Wolf Grey in December (so got back to bottom of list), and am getting the vehicle on August 12, 2022.

Question I have for you all is: I am torn between Kia mudgaurds and Weathertech mudgaurds.

I think the Kia mudgaurds look nicer, and do the job well.
But the weathertech are little bigger. Could they cause additional drag? and do they offer any additional benefits over Kia mudgaurds?

Any thoughts/ advice is welcome!

Hi. I just picked up my Wolf Grey/Dune Brown SX/P/N 2 weeks ago. I ordered the Kia mud guards but they were out of stock. I ended up going with the No Drill Weather Tech ones. My husband installed them. Super easy. I think they look great. I’m so in love with my new Telluride. It was so worth the wait!

The OEM ones look nicer and blend in. The Weathertech ones are more functional, but stand out a little more. Either one is better than nothing. I went with OEM Both are are easy to install.

Thank you TlgTlg145. I forgot to mention, mine is Dune Brown as well!!!! Good to know the Weathertechs are easy and look good. Enjoy your new Telly!!
