wide body rear to go with tht front?

Hey all i was hopoing yahll could help me out some. i have been doing some searching and have found alot of options as far as wider front fenders go. my only question is its hard to find the rears to go wtih. for instance i really like the mariah mode five fornts but ive found nothing to go on the rear to match. same thing with the corksport fronts. also does anyone have any good pics of just wither of these front fenders installed with wheels that come to the edge of the fender?

also how does the bigger kits liek what raceonusa makes hold up? anyone got any good pics of soemthing that big?

will there be a big difference in handling between like a 255 front and 275 front?

You can allready fit larger tires in the rear than you can in the front. I've heard of some people running 265's and 275's in the rear. Beware that to get the most out of wider tires you need to keep them more level to the ground (camber) and you should be running higher spring rates to control the heavier wheel/tire package (bigger will likely be heavier unless you don't go that much bigger or spend lots of money on super light wheels and pick the lightest tires).

My personal favorite bodykit is the Mariah Mode Six (it's a widebody, and really expensive), except I don't particularly care fro the nose or the wing.

I saw some wider rear fenders on eBay a while back, but rear fenders require alot of bodywork as they don't just bolt on.

I Know i can get 275's in the rear but i dont wan tthat limit and i dont want wide fenders in the front and regular in the rear. I got ground control coilovers and a rear camber adjuster. Also i have already found the wheels i want that will be if not the same then jsut one lb. or two heavier than the factories.

Someone pointed out these to me.
