Could probably cut the side of a plastic 55 gal drum and make a fender out of that. I've never had anything fly up into me from my front tires though so. ?
They help with roadspray , out here clearing snow ; in the summer they help with road tar and rocks .

I know I'd never want to be without front fenders. I travel a fair bit on the road and fast as it can hop some days in slush and road salt. They should all have fenders for safety if nothing else

I have only seen fenders on European and a few third world countries tractors. I think that is because many of them use them on the road for transportation and pulling wagons on highways. Here in USA that is not so common so they would not even have an option for fenders for most tractors. It shouldnt be too much problem to have some custom fabricated from aluminum plate and bolted on although it might interfer with a short turn radius wheel like on my LS, the tires almost hit the frame when fully turned so a fender would be a problem to install.

John Deere has fenders that mount to the steering knuckle so they turn with the wheel and they are spring loaded. There is a bumper that contacts the frame before the fender can hit anything. The spring loaded part allows the wheel to continue turning until it hits it's stop.

Gothca, like I said I dont travel with the tractor so I never need to go that fast, my front tires are pretty small as well and I have AG tires which dont seem to pick up a lot unless its deep enough and pretty sticky.
