who here has 7th rims on their celica?????
I dont understand why the rims from a 7th gen would fit on a 6th celica. can someone please explain to me?
the guy is selling his 16 alloy gts rims to me for about $300. is it really worth that much???
I dont want to get ripped off =)

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. confused.gif
