Rear Fender "Wings"

...or whatever they are called.

Is anyone else noticing rubber and road debris accumulating on the side of the car just behind the rear wheels? I have stock 18's, and am disciplined about breaking it in, with absolutely NO abuse. (exploring the rev range up to 4500, but not a burnout yet! WTF?!?!) back on topic:

is anyone else noticing this? i can imagine with the talk of wider rear tires and bigger wheels, and hard driving after break in, those little wings may be necessary. i imagine on white cars it will show up worse than on mine.

just an fyi...
