5x100 or not - they won't fit with a 0 offset. Ideal Celica offset is +42 to +35. Any more and you'll rub the strut, any less and you'll rub the fender/ stick out of the fender.


And if you're going to have them stick out you might as well put chrome trim on everything, chrome fade tint, curb feelers, hydraulics, velvet interior, and everything else to fit in with the stereotype of a hispanic individual with poor taste.

Only if you get that beaded fringe stuff you see in old skool taxis, and faux fur headliner. Lest we forget the mirror ball rear view mirror ornamentation. laugh.gif

Well anyway those wheels still aren't really my taste at all... I think they're better suited for either small hatchbacks (like little hondas or somthing) or actually a genuinely old skool car, like an old plymouth or a Cutlass or something. I saw a late 60s Valiant the other day with similar wheels on it, but very wide rear tires. The car was obviously hot rodded, and in this case, I thought it looked WAY cool. I think if you're gonna do it, go the whole way, but like total rockabilly style.
