How Large are 993 C2 Fender Flares?

If someone were to backdate a 993, and keep the sock suspension on it with the stock wheels and everything, what size fender flares would they need to fit to the body in order to fit the stock wheels and rubber underneath?

I’ll look tomorrow,
but iirc front is around 10mm wider though VERY adjustable and rear track about the same .
So narrow-track 964 not too much different , and they’re done all the time .
Depending on car , rear fender Will be tight.
964s look great with 993 twists on them .
Early cars , not so much ....
Imho

Hmm, I'm not sure if we're talking about the same thing. What I'm wondering is that if someone were to backdate a 993 to longhood pre-74 look, they'd probably be hanging stock fenders and quarters on the car, and then adding flares to fit the 993 suspension and tires under it. If they were to go that route, which is the direction I'm heading, what size flares would I need to order so I could fit the 993 suspension under there?

I've been looking at 2.8 RSR flares, turbo flares, and ST flares as likely candidates. The sizes seem to be 9", 11" and 12.5" I believe, but could be wrong, that's just based on my initial research.
