The bolt pattern on the 7th gen is the same as the 6th gen. The bolt pattern is 5x100.

Yeah, they will fit. Phat95 had them. I don't know about the prices though I know that rims from toyota will be very expensive.

THe link doesn't work, they do fit i dunno why but they do, since i have the 00+ GT wheels, i think 300 is a good price.

I think their good, not too flashy, much better than stock rims, and give the 6th gen a pretty good appearence, I was thinking about buying some.

The alloy's on mine were originally gen 7 factory fit alloys. I've had no problems in the year I've had them on and they fit just fine.

I bet the Toyota dealer will have them. Places that sell alloy's and stuff might have them but they need to be the right type for the car.

you know when you park your car next to a curb. if you go to cloose it might scratch. so if you look at the rims you can see where the scratches are. like some of the paint came off or what not. |

The speedo reading of a standard Celica is known to over-read by a small amount (say 5 - 6 %) eg: show 70 Mph when you're actualy doing 66 Mph . Most cars do this - they design them to over read rather than under read for safety reasons.
So I reckon that when you fit bigger wheels (which can cause slight under read by the same amount) your speedo will if anything be more accurate than ever because the over and under read will cancel each other out.

If I'm not mistaken stock GT tires are 205/55/15. So if you go +1, 205/50/16 shouldn't change the overall diameter of the rim and tire and you will have accurate speedometer reading. |

I really don't like the look of TRD rims. I wanted some once, but I realized that it was becaust they were TRD. Buy a product, not a name. But hey, if they look good,

Hioctane... I didnt notice ne cons with the 7th gen rims on. I really like them... there just not wide enuf to hadle the torque of the 3sgte so I need to get rid of them.. as for the conditon there still VERY good.. I have had them for 1.5 years and they have been babied the whole time. before that they sat in a grage for a year or so because they wouldnt fit on my friends camary that he baught them for.
I will be sellin them as soon as I get these  I will post them here and who ever wants them can make offers for them at that time. -------------------- 99 project version 3.0.. hello SEMA 2010 =) |
