Rear End width

[TheJDMan]

Axle flange can be a rather ambiguous term and can mean different things to different people. For sake of clarity, we generally refer to the Wheel Mount Surface or WMS to WMS as the rear end width measurement where the wheel actually mounts on the axle. Every build is going to be unique and those dimensions may or may not fit your car.

That said, I'm running 18x12 335s with a 5.5" backspace on a 57" WMS to WMS rear end width in my 68. If I'm not mistaken the 2nd gen rear end is wider than the 1st gen. If that is the case my ciphering indicates a 56.25 WMS to WMS rear will be too narrow for a 2nd gen.
