    well i think it looks horrible on that camaro... maybe if you had the 11" wide wheels on the back... and only had the back flares... and had them molded in real subtly... to make it look like you just had wider back fenders... then... maybe...

      Yeah I know it does look bad on that Camaro. My rear wheels are 10.5" wide. I was thinking about just the rear to but im not sure either way.

      Thanks keep the opinions coming

        I wish they woulda taken some pics from straight back. I bet that could look good if you got the rears and molded em on. And they would have to go with 315s. I don't like the front ones though.

          yeah, I think you could make it work if you got them molded on very subtly like kev said, make it look like part of the fender, but wider. If you did the same for the front, it might work, but for now i'm gonna say just the back, and definitely paint it body color, but i'm sure that's a given.

            Yeah you are right about the front. So the front is out of the question so now im just talking about mabye doing the rears. I have 295's out back now but if it looked good once those were burned up I would go with some 315's.

              Yeah thats what im thinking now just the rear and I would want it to look like it is part of the fender and of course body color.

                I dont know about those. As stated, maybe if you had it molded but even then... It just doesn't look right. I'm gonna go ahead and say that's a big negative on that one.

                  IMO the best fenders ever concieved for camaros with big fat tires are the ZL1's rear fenders...



                  if you could get your hands on a set of those... or somehow mold the flares that way... it would look awesome....

                    Damn that is nice!!

                    Ok I decided I am not going to do it with the ebay flares but I would like flare out the rear some way to look close to this if possible without spending a fortune.
