What about some arch repair panels, cut at the fold where the flat of the body is then welded to the outside edge of the original arch, should get a good inch whilst retaining the std look :)

That is a really good idea. I have looked at the clearance of my sld's against the wheel arches though, and there is not much room - prolly less than 10mm now that I have boarded out the doors themselves, so it looks like I will not be doing any widening. It's just gonna have to be wheels that fit straight on for me, in the end.
Unless anyone figured out how to increase the distance the sld comes out...
