It really depends on the wheel width, back spacing and tire size. My wheels are either 20x8.5 or 20x9 with 4.75" back spacing, I can't remember. My axle is 61.5" wide and it sits perfectly between the fender and bedside.

Basically it's best to measure, if you plan to go really low it all changes due to the curve of the fender.

Here's a bunch of good info about measuring for wheels http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=530806
