That's what I thought as it's around 45mm past the outside of the guard. I've not really seen wide wheels on aus specs I just know how much a 2 door can get away with on just belted out guards. Already enquired about some 50mm guards.

Roll slightly.

You have to realise that flaring and all that is a current trend.
So rolling like hell would in future de-value your dato.
Slightly roll, and adhesive flares/

I would of said flares, keep in mind I'm pretty sure that tires that protrude the guards are not roadworthy?

man just lower it more. the lower it is the more camber you get. here's my car with 14x8 -12's on the back

according to this

that's nearly the same poke. you may need to roll slightly, but mine don't touch anything

If the diff is a solid rear end - I don't think you can camber them in

(someone correct me if I am wrong ?)

I can't think of any flares on a 4 door car that look that good. Be a man and lower it and get some smaller tyres.
kumho and federal make 185 55 14s they will look killer

Another possibility: Using 1600 trailing arms on your 180B will reduce the track to bring the wheels further in. I think it's 25mm but I don't recall if it's 25mm per side or 25mm overall. Can anyone confirm this?

hey jono yours look great. i was only really talking about bolt on flares, but then i just saw these!

with the offsets my rims sit 113.6mm out from the hub and skitz sit 116.9mm out. i can say safely that i would be able to get that extra 3mm under with minimal rolling.

flares doo look good on datos but on a 610 you would lose that lovely crease over the arch.
