I am thinking about doing some auto crossing and was wondering if anyone else goes auto crossing in their celica. I was also wondering what would be a good and agressive spring suspension set up for this.

well after 16" you lose handling
like on my 14" rims i'm a go kart
on my 18" its not so much go kart

larger rims are heavier, slower, more inertia, and handle worse
i'd say a 15" would be perfect but i'm running 14" for autox

um dan you have a body kit. that alone i thought puts you in a dif class even if your wheels and suspension are untouched.

ok....so according to what your all saying about rims and tires.....you should run a 14 or 15 inch rim with low profile tires for auto cross....but if your doing that, i suggest that you have them a strictly racing, and if you drive your car to the event, that you change them when you get there......and take them back off before leaving.....

you could do that, but depending on what class your running your car will be setup for that already. its not like you are driving around with 18s and no suspension and just swap out for 14s.
