Not sure, they were on a 4 door when I found them. $10.00 for both.
I was thinking the wider tire thing as well.

id say do it so you can run wider front rims/tires, otherwise, keep it stock. do you plan on riveting them on or molding them?

That was one thing I was not sure of just yet.

I am running 195/60/14 as of now. I guess some Nice 205 would work?

another thing is how are the ends/tips of the flares gonna be? are you gonna cut them at the point where your front bumper/fender meets cause if you look in that last pic of that CRX w the flares, those must be made for the CRX by the way they flow right onto the front bumper perfect...prob J's Racing flares

Run a 225 tire out front and a 205 in the back on a 15" wheel with those flares and that'd be sick and no rubbing either.
