Your FRAME PERIMETER is somewhere in front of the tilted up wheel (what ever structure you have in front of it). So you'd need a BUMPER on that section, and it must be in the BUMPER ZONE - 4 to 12" off the floor. Since the BUMPER is 5" in height, the most ground clearance you can get in front is 7" (12 - 5).

Your side BUMPER also has to extend all the way to the front, so it will protect the front corners.
