Fender Flares/Widebody for EG?
I can't find anything that's not just a show item, they look to not make the body much wider, just add a weird looking body line. 205s just aren't cutting it, no traction until the middle of 3rd gear...

Not a fan of "JDM", prefer American if possible, no reason to pay more.
Looking for a company like http://www.piner.com/japco offering something for Civics.

I wasn't being a jdm bandwagon person, I was saying the only ones I've ever seen were some obscure Japanese race company.
You can't just buy some out of the Summit catalog like you can for a Chevy truck

These fiberglass fenders were made by Chris Travis, a.k.a. Rodney on H-T.

I've seen some inexpensive ones at the autox alot. Never seen them on the bac though. Why not just roll the **** out of the stock fenders? You could probably get 2 inches out of them with some work

Is he still making/selling those?
Also, try checking with the companies that make one-piece front ends for drag cars, they can point you in the right direction.

still no reason to flair the rear though......
although, i do have rears, it is only for serious racers (requires full 1/4 replacement) stillnot worth it, as you do not need a huge tire in the back.

exactly what i was thinking, and if you have to have a larger wheel just roll the fenders to make them fit better

If i tried to roll the rear fenders, all the bondo would fall out from the rust holes.
I'd just rivit or screw in rear flares.

if you are autocrossing, the last thing you want to do on a fwd car is make the rear wider....

Just the man I was about to brag on. This guy makes his own fiberglass wide front ends.
Oh yeah, and buy his rear tie bar.

Yea but he wont sell them unless you buy his axles, bum
But yea theres absolutly no reason to widen the rears except for show. Roll them a little and youll be fine. I have a friend running 215 in the rear of his 99 hatch with minimum roll.

i have run 225's in back, but have since gone back to a 205. i will be experimenting soon with a 195/60-14 on a 14x6, but still running the 225/50-15 on the 15x9 up front.
