Is it possible to change my bolt pattern from 5x100 to 5x114.3?
The wheels I want are in 5x114.3 17x10 20offset. So if I got the conversion adapters from 5x100 to 5x114.3 it would add 25mm. It would make the wheels I want w/5offset, which would poke like crazy. ***For AT200/1.8L Hatchback 5Spd*** |

You know what really looks cool? Functional rim and tire setups. You can be more flush and have better handling than stock if you do it right. Can't remember with the 6th gen Celica, but if you get the offsets right you should be able to fit 8-9" wide with a 225 series tire and it be fairly flush without rolling. I guess the main thing is for the love of all things holy don't have that much tire stretch... Depending on the tire 225 on 9" is bad enough, but some with wider tread sections than others it doesn't look all that stretched. Not trying to tell you what to do, it's your car, but if you care about how the car handles and feels to drive at all then you should strongly reconsider what you're wanting. Plus you should be able to find something 8-9" wide in 5x100 to your liking, paired with some good summer tires it'll totally transform how the car handles and feels only in positive ways.

Yeah been looking at the conversion and rear disc conversion costs and labor is gonna be a hole in the wallet, I might just run these 17x8 30 offset concave wheels instead and their in 5x100, so it’ll save me a bunch. |

If you can find a 17x8-9 in 5x100 you really like and the offset is 30-40mm you can always fine tune it with spacers to get it to the desired flushness. That and you can put the money saved towards some great summer tires and anything else you've been wanting to do. Once you get a nice street performance alignment and take it down a twisty road you'll love it. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed
