Default mixing widebody w/ regular

hey guys, i'm not going to be modding my body anytime soon, but i was thinking about maybe getting a tracy sports wide rear/rear quarters with a sorcery front. could this be done, or does the tracy sports rear not taper down to the stock sides so that it can line up with the front of the car? there aren't many available pics of the TS kit so it'd be great if you guys could share your opinions. also would the vast difference in tire size (stock size fronts with extra wide rears) have any adverse effect on handling?


thanks
Rashad


Sorcery front (as you can see, the front bumper is not wider because it lines up with stock fenders:



Tracy Sports (i want the rear/wide rear quarters):

OP edited--it looks like the sides line up with the wide rears then taper down to normal width in the front, but can anyone confirm this?? i think a super wide rear w/ stock width front would look awesome!

it looks to me that the s2k is wider in the front that in the rear (appearance) because of the wide front fenders.

soo... stock ish front..... WIDE rear. mm.. will look rather strange if you ask me.

unless you run WIDE fenders... then add some custom side that will gradually run wider as it progresses down the car.. then to your tracy wb rear.

overall sounds like an OK combo. ask some photoshop gurus on s2ki.=]

good luck!

stockish front/wide rear (my uncle has this car--i love the extra wide rear look, and i think the S2000 can pull it off):






also referring to the post quoted above--from the pictures, it looks like the tracy sports sides match up to the rear fenders then taper down to stock size in the front.
