It's a design / cost call. F82 does have wider rear fenders - they just chose to flare the whole rear quarter panel instead of a fender flare.

F80 on the other had doesn't have enough space - there is a rear door in the way. Best was to do flares instead of design a custom rear door separate from standard 3-series vehicles. Ironically, most enthusiasts prefer flares as they're much more noticeable, me included.
