Default Tucking rim/tire on a 4g

How come I never see any 4g civic hatches/2g crxs tucking rim or tire? No matter how big the rims are. I have been looking on the net, and have only seen like one pic. Is there some good reason for this that I don't know about?

Why won't they tuck? Easy... the wheelwells are frickin' huge, and not that deep. So if you wanted to tuck you'd get basically zero suspension travel on like an 18" wheel . Ugly!!
