It looks toast from this view... take a pic of the bottom... the driver rear rims looks okay... so the rear MIGHT be ok

so you don't have a gsl-se? if not then you may want to reconsider cause using the rear from that will give you a different bolt pattern.

Honestly, I doubt that the fire could do much damage to the rear-end. Thick cast iron can get pretty hot before it takes damage, and the innerds are shielded. Look for cracks in the cast, and plan to get new brake rotors, wheel bearings, etc...
