They are made by RAYS. They are nearly twice as much as the Konigs too.I found the offset, +36. Does that sound right?

I can either wait 4 months or pay air freight ($800) and get them within 2 months. But at that price the Konig's are starting to look pretty good.

Black on black looks good but is becoming pretty common. Both will look hot though.

TUFGSR Member 514 Member For: 20y 3m 18d Posted 09/06/09 09:20 AM Share Posted 09/06/09 09:20 AM Thefirst ones are really nice. Get them in black and your set. Who cares about the price, trust me it is worth every cent to have the perfect rim. You will never regret it.As for offsets I have a +40 on the rear with 10 inch rims and 295s. There's about 10mm clearance between tyre and guard and about 25mm between tire and chassis. You could easily get an 11 inch rim and 315s with the right offset.I'm up for tires soon so I'm going with a Toyo Proxi 4 in 305sChristian Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/58387-what-wheel-should-i-get/#findComment-888186 Share on other sites More sharing options...
