Supposedly, no rig is legally allowed to be more than 102" wide, including mirrors. That's 8' 6".
What you don't know is if that 8'4" (100") is the absolute narrowest part, at what height, and accounts for rocks jutting out.
My van's spec lists it at 6'9" wide, but I don't think that includes the mirrors. I suspect they add another 6-7" total. Most B+ vans I looked at on the Promaster (like Viva or Trend) show 18" wider (9" on each side) so that is 8' 3" without mirrors or awning sticking out. Not sure I'd be brave enough to squeeze thru with only 1/2" on each side.
