How much wider wheel and tire can you fit under the car with the flares?

What offset/Backspace do you need on 12A and 13B models?

i think im gonna get those and mould them to the fenders and fill in the holes that are in them

and any idea the width of rim you could fit on there with those rims, and im assuming before you put the flares on you cut the piece out of the original fenders...

How would adding those flares prevent your tires from rubbing?

Does that mean you have to cut away the original fender that is covered by the new flares?

What kind of front kit is that? That air dam/ bumper thing looks very nice. Maybe my car Rosie could use a bumper afterall...

I would assume that you could fit a 2" wider rim with the stock backspace on the car without any problems, just as long as you cut your original fenders. They are definately on my list. Next best thing to a full widebody is fender flares.

Terror7 - give the Rotary workshops that run Improved Production (IPRA, aka 3j, or the old 2e class) - try Selectmaz in Melbourne for a start. And check Grumpe's website (Team Chapparal www.grumpe.com.au ) they use Fibremaster parts (http://www.fibremaster.com.au/mazda.htm )
Someone used to do a much narrower set, like maybe just an inch wide - don't recall who.

(sorry, not trying to hijack, just help a local Aussie!)
