What rims would you have on your 4 if you had the choice of any?
« on: October 31, 2009, 04:50:41 pm »
I was wondering what you guys would have if you had the choice, wether they be OEM or after market, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Mazda whatever, post pics of the wheel if you can on whatever car.
They dont have to be Celica fitment as where theres a will and a credit card ;)...

I think these would look good on your car and not too expensive. I'd go for et35 front and et30 rear for best looks/handling and to avoid catching the wheel arches..

I also like bronze coloured wheels like in the attached picture which are Work Emotion XD9

My choice of wheels would be OZ roulettes and I have OZ roulettes fitted  ;)

Given the choice I'd probably go for 17's maybe but the 16's suit the 165 very well  :)

Carbon rims are stunning and so unbelievably lightweight they must make the suspension and accel/braking so much better, but really not sensible for street use due to damage etc.

I still like the old 17" oz 5 spokes. Not a fan of roulettes, as they look a bit too steel-wheely

These are certainly jizz worthy  ;D

Would love some ultra lightweight carbon rims  ;) How much if you don't mind me asking?

You can get carbon-effect ones for buttons.
