Question Nova backspacing with Speedtech subframe?

Just wondering if anyone else has put a Speedtech subframe into a nova yet and what they found to be good backspacing. I have the New Gen Splliters with that are 8" wide with 4.75" backspacing, which I was told should be good with this subframe. I started hanging the sheetmetal today and found that the wheels are going to rub. I have a ton of room to move inward so that's what I might have to do. I'm also running Wilwood 12.19" brakes on the front. Anyone have any suggestions on how I could move the wheels in or would I be better off getting different backspacing? I've attached some pics also to show the issue. And this is in no way to call out Speedtech or Driver's Inc, I'm just looking to see if there are any other set ups out there yet as I haven't seen any other novas with this subframe. Thanks in advance.


Lot of room inside





Where it's rubbing
