1st gen Fbody maximum rear track width?
I have searched quite a bit and am a little surprised it doesnt appear this has been asked before. I am trying to determine, what is the maximum overall width (measured from outside tire surface to out side tire surface) that can be fit under a 1st gen (1967-68, preferably) fbody with stock quarter panels, no flares, etc.?
I understand this isnt the actual track width. I will be mocking up my rear setup soon and rather than just eyeballing it when I set the tires in place, I'd like to have a dimension to work from (or atleast start with).
Any info would be greatly apprrciated. For reference i am planning to run 295/35/18 or 305/30/18 rear tires with and irs.

My Heidts IRS has a 60” track width in the rear this is posted on heidts website. My car is minitubbed and I have 325 tires in the rear. For my front end, I have a chassisworks frame and I believe their track width is 58”they have this posted on their website. I have 275 tires in the front with stock inner fenders. If you are building your own frame front to back, Heidts uses a track width of 60” front and back. Again this is all on their website. I believe chassiworks uses a track width of 58” again please double check on their website.
I’m not sure if track width is the actual tire to tire dimension. I can take some measurements for you later todayMy Very Ambitious 69 Build
