they look nice, but you should get 17 or 18 inch.

Holotype-R 17's only fit the AU up falcons with the offset 38. so yeah there the biggest size i could get with an offset of 6. I had such a hard time finding a nice set, most mag shops didn't even stock anything for the EL and earlier models. All AU and BA mags. One sales rep said he didn't even want my business because it was to much trouble for him to find a set with the offset.

cheers luke.
