Widest wheel/tire combo? FC with AWR EP flares

I'm running the AWR glass flares on the rear of my FC; it's formerly an SCCA EP car. I'm wondering what the biggest wheel/tire combo is that anyone has managed to fit back there?

I'm hoping to use 16x12" rears and 16x10" front using GT1/2 slicks (25.0x13.0-16 or 27.0x14.0-16 for the rear). I think 16x10 will fit fine on the front so not too worried about that.

Anyone managed to fit anything this big before? My initial measurements suggest that there should be plenty of room. I think I remember someone running 18x13" wheels on their FC but not sure what flares they were using.

Any insight appreciated!

I didnt think those flares were as wide as you think.
the widths you mention are familiar to the tripoint setup.
