        Extra wide would be a ridiculous amount of tire space. My 16x8s with 245s were outside of the rear fenders by a good 1/4" or so and now they're tucking and inside the flares by at least 1.5". I'm not saying you shouldn't wait but consider how much flare you're really going to need. :)

          I'd like to see some with 17x9 square tire setup.

            17x9 easily fit the current flare design.

              I will not even be able to produce the extra wide version until I sell a few of the regular.

                there was a lot of interest that seemed to die away, no one else wants a set of flares?

                  Give me a month or so and I'll be bugging you. I'm in the middle of a sbf 302 swap. I need flares to cover some nasty wrinkles I'll cut out of the factory flare and to cover the fat meats inside the wells!

                    That sucks because these are awesome flares! I've been slammed with school, work, and life that I haven't even had time to put my fronts on yet.

                        an additional 1" wider, problem is it would over hang the bumpers and not look as clean. the current sized flares fit more rubber than most E30's need

                          Definitely interested in these! Similarly priced to my previous idea of how i was going to cram more rubber under the E30.

                          Will be PM'ing you about a set in the near future.

                            These flares have me considering this move. The tire cost difference is not huge between 15" and 17". I'd like to see some 245 or 255/17 under these flares.

                              yea I'm still debating on what flares to get from u if u make the extra wide sets...

                              then ill deff run a 16x12 custom set along with some 275/45s for my s50t

                              would be perfect

                                according to tire rack my tread width is wider than a few 245's so this should give an idea, I have plently of room left. most 245's are only 8.4-9.1" wide and the tires pictured are 8.9" wide. You can see they actually bulge past my 8" rim pretty good. A short sidewalled 275 should actually fit in the rear just fine
