wouldnt covering the whole wheel well with a skirt offset the few inches of front area added by a lot?
Consider the modern hypercar. They all taper through the doors and then have swollen 'haunches' to clear the rear tires.

If the skirt starts at the door opening instead of the wheel well, or even has a fillet added to the door, it would smoothen the airflow even more.
