    The important measurement of the rear is the wheel mounting surface to wheel mounting surface measurement, not backing blate measurements. If the rear tires are not going to be any higher than the fender notches in the body, 56" wms to wms will suffice. IF the car will sit lower, you'll need to be a couple of inches wider.

    Thanks for the feedback. I am planning on an 12 in Z in the back end with stock spring so it will be close to the wheel wells.
