Wheel to spring clearance

OK, I'm going to go and measure it now. I'm getting 5.5" inches from the wheel mount on the brake drum, to the leaf spring. Wheel mount to tire edge is 4.5 " laying flat on the floor. But on the other side with the wheel on, still have 1.5 " inches to the spring. So it looks like I can do a max backspace on the wheel of 4.5 to 5".
Measure both sides. There is usually a difference between the two.
