Although I am a little confused as to what you are asking, it sounds like you want to know about the tire clearance on a 3,500 lb axle that is 89" from hub face to hub face and 74" from spring center to spring center, like the Dexter Axle # T3584F-EZ-8974 (EZ-Lube Spindle) or # T3584F-8974. The tire is going to be well past the clearance of 6 feet (72 inches) you mentioned, as it will sit on the hub.
I have added some links to help articles on trailer suspension which I highly recommend taking a look at as well.
