to be as flush as marco you would need a 36 mm spacer. but the highest i would get would be 25 mm. you really need a wider wheel for it to look good, either 17x8 or even 17x8.5. i have 17x8 +32 and they are fairly sucked in.

Depends on your definition of flush.
For true flush fitment you would need 28 mm spacers in the front and 46 mm in the rear. A 15 mm spacer in the front and 20 mm in the rear will look a lot better then what you have now, but will still be sunken, very similar to my wheels. |

ya i am getting those numbers from the flush wheel thread but that is with stretched tires.
are you still running different sized tires front and rear? i don't know if you know about the offset calculator. i use this one: http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp 17x7 +18 will extend 1 mm more than my 17x8 +32s. And mine are really sunk with 215/45/17 tires. |

I'm gonna go ahead and jump in here, I'm still running my winter tires but plan to put my summer wheels/tires back on this week.
I've got König Incident 17x7, 225/45/17 tires, lowered on TRD springs about an inch and a half. I looked on line and it seems all the König 17x7s run a 40mm offset. I've read through this entire thread and am still unsure of myself. So according to the guide on page 1, does that mean I would need 14mm spacers to achieve effectively 26mm offset? Thanks! -------------------- |

yes, 14 mm spacers will give you a 26 mm offset, which will look a lot better than 40 mm offset.

well I just put some yokohama s drive 205/45R16 tires on my 16x7 Motegi FF7 with +42 offset. Before I had 225/50R16 toyo proxes and the tires didnt look that sucked in. Now they do with the smaller size tires. I do not want to get extended wheel studs. I know I will not need to buy extended wheel studs with 5mm spacers. How about 8mm or 10mm spacers, will I need extended wheel studs. I don't plan on keeping these rims for much longer, but only for another 6 months or so. I plan on getting oz racing ultra ht that come in 16x7 with +35 offset.
also what brand should I buy and what brands should I avoid. Our center bore is 54.1mm right, for both gt and st celica's??? What to do, can anybody tell me if I'll need extended wheel studs for 8mm or 10mm spacers??

OK I will be getting 10mm in front and 10 mm in the rear if possible. I just measured my front and rear bore size and they are at 54.1mm for my ST celica. Does the GT celica have the same size bore??? Do all 10mm spacer and up come with extended wheel studs??

alright so I bought some 10MM Version 1 Ichiba Wheel Spacers off ebay for $230 shipped to my house. I have a bit of concern:
1. One of the boxes came packaged slightly different. One of the boxes only had tape on the front side of the box while the other box had tape on all 3 sides of the box. 2nd one of the box came with a set of bronze colored studs while the other came with gold color studs and the gold colored studs are shorter by 2.4mm. One of the box came with the bronze studs in a white box while the other box came with the studs in a plastic bag all by itself. 2 different sized bags for the different colored studs. As to why I have to different lengths of studs and as to why they are different colors different quality??? I have no clue? I already contacted the seller with pics of the studs which are my main concern Should I install these spacers with the longer studs in the front, the bronze ones that look more durable and the gold shorter studs in the rears? I measured the spacers and the center and everything else matches up except 2 of the spacers are a different shade of silver. Should I really be that skeptical about these or what??

Need quick help.
Rims are 17x8 offset 35. Ideally i would want 225/45/17 tires on the rims. Currently there are 245/40/17 tires on the rims with good thread. Will i have a problem running these tires? Need to know before 4pm tomorrow. Thank you -------------------- |

You will be fine as long as you're not slammed. IMO, highest i'd go would be 235. I know these two cars are different but I will be running 235-45-17 (front) and 245-45-17 (Rear) for my 17x8 fn01HV on my is300 with 1" drop. IMO, 17x8 with offset of 30-35 looks awesome without using spacers. GL

Ok, first off I hope all is well with everyone on the site.. I have been soo busy of late I haven't had time for anything! The celica hasn't been out in over two summers.. ( I know I know) .. I do plan to do some more mods and take it out this summer for sure! Anyway need your guys help and opinion,, I'm looking at XXR 518 wheels in black.. I want to do 18in the front and 19 in the back, the problem is they don't make 19 in 5 x 100 bolt patter just 114 , 8.5.. I was planning on running spacers so does an adapter and spacer work? Also I am bagged , so how's that work w a spacer? Will I have room slammed? I def do not want to do 18 all around.. please let me know what u guys think.! The offsets options for the xxr 518 can be found here.. www.xxrwheels.com
