I'm no expert but I'd try 6-8 24" tubes. 3" on each side will be no big deal especially when you're looking to place your lower light corals AND you need room for access around the sides too.
i agree on the 6-8 bulb t5 unit. I have a 6bulb sunpower and while my tank has a little less depth than yours, I had no problems keeping a clam and encrusting monty on the sandbed
