It allows a wider rear wheel track.

My VLVW Concept has the fenders removed, and fully enclosed cycle fenders like that bus you posted in the other thread. Except instead of being sunk into the side of the body, they're half exposed.
The front fenders have a ducktail outward, so the wheels can turn. The rears are freestanding scoops that pressurize the diffuser. They taper inward to the rear.
The maximum body width moves inward 3in and forward 2ft on each side. That's what allows the 3ft boattail instead of 5 feet. IMHO, of course.
