Gen3 Liberty RX, fit 15" rims?

Post by Phizinza » Sat May 30, 2009 10:33 am

Can a gen 3 Liberty RX be fitted with 15" rims like the GX is, or are the brakes larger?

yes thay will fit, I have a Gen 3 RX and I took the 16's off and put some 15's on, but thay wont go on a H6 as thay have bigger brakes.
