I've changed my mind about the taper. I will be tapering the corners. They rails stick out about 1/2" beyond the wheels. I don't want them to hang up, so they will be tapered in the front from about the middle of the 2x6.

Yep, mine extend back 5 inches to match the contour and to get more protection back there. If you are on small sharp rocks and slide off, it can wedge between the rocker and the wheel.

I extended mine about 2.5" farther back than the stock rails.

Mine look goofy because they back into that area where it angles upward and starts into the rear wheelwell, but it offers extra protection.
