Wheelie bar question

I am trying to make a set of NATPA legal wheelie bars and have a question about what the rules state. It says the back of the wheelie bar is to extend 5" past the tire radius. Is that 5" past the farthest back part of the tire or 5" past the point where the bar goes past the tire?
 
That's WAY more than 5" past the radius of the tire. Not saying you're wrong. It could be that the rule wasn't stated completely or maybe the rule was written incorrectly. Maybe it should say "5 inches beyond the tire radius parallel to the ground."
