yeah race on usa has some for the s-15. I am ordering them and will make them fit the back of my vert. The Nissan is very close to the same wheel well as our cars and should not be to hard to get them to fit. I am trying to run a 315/35/17 on a 10 inch rim so I will need these bolt on flares. I have a pic of them and I think they look kick ***

There's no such thing for the rears.
If you inspect your "rear fenders", they are integrated into the whole body.
Fenders flares for the rear need to be either molded in or riveted / fastened on.
