I try to make the front and rear outside spacing the same front and rear,( just a preference ) so I measure out the front wheels to know how to wide to order the rear axle.
Good luck

Thanks for the help. It's hard to figure out the "right way" sometimes. I've heard people say to narrow first, then measure for wheels, but it seems that you would need to have some sort of size in mind first. This is not a high dollar build; 99.9% will be done in my garage, including paint. I will almost definately have to go with a wheel like American Racing or similar. I want to run as wide as possible with the stock tubs. I've seen 18" wheels with 285 tires (SpiffaV8
), so I want something like that.
Thanks again, Lateral-g rules
