i think you be pushing your luck mounting a 10.5 tyre on a 6 inch rim, definately wouldnt be legal. 8 inch rims would be ideal

8" would be too wide for a 10.50 wide tyre, you'd end up popping beads off fairly quickly

but they would fit on a 6" wide rim

and if you want to keep using the split rims, make sure they are free of rust and use new tubes and rust bands.. nothing worse than trying to break the bead on a split rim that's so badly rusted together :bad-words:

While you could use 7's, 8's would be recommended.

I've those exact tyres and size on 16x7 sunnies and they bell out heaps in the sidewalls.

I'd go 8"

In saying that though my mate and I ran them in a pretty easy speed comp course (Riverland 4x4 challenge) at 20 psi and they stuck to the rims no worries.
