Hi there. I've been lurking around here for about a year on this forum, but never posted or introduced myself (i'm both rude and shy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ) . My name is Metzger and i have a narrowbody 71-914. First i thought i'll keep it that way but as always i f..k up. Yesterday my favoriteweels came up for sale and i just had to buy them. Now my ? They are 10"and 9"×17" . Are there anyone who makes gt-flares that can cover those wheels. Like the look of the original style. The can-am type not so much. Btw they sat on 930. Pardon my poor english. I habla you and i hope habla mine.

There are several vendors that make wider fiberglass GT flares that will fit those wheels.

You can also get the metal GT flares and widen them yourself to fit your wheel/tire combo.
There are several threads around on how to do that.
