Gotta be done, will look the bollocks 
The Cossie world is mega shy on modding the arches (ie rolling and flaring the fuck outa em) to make stuff fit compared to say, VW/Drift people, and it really spoils the look.
Look how cool some of the Euro Cossies look, and look how ordinary and samey the UK ones always do with their wheels tucked miles into the arches.
For example, ive seen S13s running 10x17s with -55 (yes MINUS) offset without any arch extensions, just the standard arches flared like fuck.
And standard is like 6.5x15s with +45 (yes PLUS, like most cars) offset.

Serious rolling fucks the paint, but thats to be expected.
Heating it up properly and being careful gets some decent results.
Some places will do it pro for you of course, dunno where tho, a lot of wheel specialists will roll your arches, but doubt theyd be cool wkith mega flaring em.

I also agree with stavros. Arching the Sierras looks awsome, leave alone the benefits of using wider/bigger wheels...
Here's an example on an old Sierra Shaph in Athens... It looks amazing, don't you think?
I ll also try to dig up pics when it was black with these arches. It was VEEERY mean....
