show me your rear arches

Im in the market for a set of rear arches. I dont want them to stick out too much. I want them to be discreet so i fit my 18x10.5 +18 rims

so show me what you got. I have seen a few but i cant make up my mind

correct fender flares or sometimes they are called "add ons" or rear 1/4 panels.

Rear arches is the term that's used in the UK - Perhaps hes British. America isn't the whole world you know.....Despite the average Americans belief

i was not aware of that difference Ceylon, Thanks for pointing it out.
Truth is, i spent a few years in the UK, studied and worked there so i guess my vocabulary leans more towards that side.

Neither of these will fit.

TRISPEEDFD3S has 18x10 ET38 and had to roll the stock rear fenders just to get the 295's to barely fit.

I have the same size rears as him, with a 10mm spacer/studs in the rear with my Burnout flares that I trimmed to a 1/4" lip.

This was after I bought 18x10.5 ET 15 only to find that they were no where close to fitting. I mean it - not even close. 10 degrees of camber wouldn't have made them fit.

I'd like to point out that I run 0* in the rear with my 285/30-18 AD08 Neovas, btw, a setup that allows me to accelerate while cornering.

In my Avatar is my older setup, where I was running Enkei RP03 18x10 ET22 with 265/35-18 AD07s.

For "street performance" reasons, I recommend against pushing the wheels out too far. The more you push the wheels outward, the more readily the diff locks more when the car turns, since there will be a greater difference in wheel speed between the inside and outer wheels.
