Here is the Saturn I sold a few months back, with 9" wheels under it:
Sketched in flare front profile:
This would give you smooth flow across the sides (vs the massive dip inward stock). Feasible?

It's an interesting idea, but with the extremely short distance from the rear door to the rear wheel opening, I struggle to imagine a way of doing it that would be aesthetically pleasing. At least not while being worthwhile aerodynamically. Maybe on the front, but I'm not sure.
Unfortunately, with appearance a concern and highway miles it's expected to travel relatively minimal, the "worth it" threshold is unusually tight.
