With other cars (like my FD) there's a good reason to avoid overfenders - the stock body already 'looks' aggressive/wide... these cars look better with stock bodies lightly rolled and pulled.
With my S13 and later S14, the wide fenders make the car. I ran 18x10 +0 / 18x12 +0 and made the body to fit with modded Dmax rears and modded AIT fronts, and it came out aggressive as fuck. There's certainly something to be said for a clean stock body car, but I was extremely pleased with how wild and unique mine was (neither of which can be had with stock fenders).
If I had a pristine S-chassis and wanted to keep my wheels/tires around 9.5", I'd certainly do what Wayne did and run a little roll and pull for the super clean look - his car looks fantastic. Since most S-chassis cars are beat, people have no problem spending ~$200 on some nice clean fenders. My problem is with people that run overfenders, then spacers to get their craptastic 18x8 et35 wheels to meet the fenders - like Koguchi did. That shit is homo and rice IMO.
