Hello, I'm looking to find some wheels for my buddy with a 1999 Celica. I was wondering if stock wheels from a subaru wrx would fit the celica because I think the Celica is 5x100 also and seem to have similar offset but I'm just not sure about the center bore size.
If these wheels don't work then what other oem style wheels would fit his celica? (i.e. scion tc oem wheels)

Wheels will fit, but chances are the hub bore will not be the same... Subarus have a 57.1mm hub bore and Celicas have a 54.1mm hub bore. Unless the wheels are lug centric, you're going to have to find somebody willing to do a 3mm hubcentric ring.

all of them should fit, the lower offset ones id check the caliper clearance for the brakes.

Lower offset means more clearance, so I wouldn't worry about them not clearing...

I would buy the Rays out of that group. Unless they are replicas.

Replica BBS wheels are dumb, and the last wheels would need new tires.

wrx wheels fit celicas good, but they usually have bigger offsets as their hubs sit at a wider track than ours

definitely the gram lights, not so much into those multispoke rims, you will lack its taste very fast, and they are a PITA to clean/maintain. BBS looking wheels and the other one, friend has a set and all he talks about is cleaning his wheels, LOL, I told him so, now he wants to get my low maintenance WORK XD9's.
