GTX G6eT New Member 6 Member For: 6y 10m 17d Posted 21/06/18 01:45 AM Author Share Posted 21/06/18 01:45 AM I cant find many rims with a that are 17 or 16 x10.5+ inch that will fit, I find it hard to put down 550rwkw with 9.5s , do you know any sites that do? I was planning on painting them black as well to go on the G6e.
