Hey keepat,
What type of brakes do you have in front? I installed a SSBC kit, I'm not sure if that changes anything in regards to wheel offset. 
Thanks!

I used Wilwood 13" 6 piston on a custom spindle and it worked out to be within 1/4" of stock.

I spoke to SSBC, theirs puts the suspension out about 1/4" as well. It really changed the offset it the rear with their rear disc kit, although they state it shouldn't...
