ok so me and some of my fellow Celi owners, along with other car enthusiasts were talkin about our Celicas. I'm sure we've all noticed how in-set the wheels are within the fenders, particularly the rear wheels. What are good combinations of spacers that will make a stock 15x7 alloy wheel fill out the body lines a little more? And what good aftermarket offsets do the same for when some of us get aftermarket wheels?
For the rear I figured a 25mm or so spacer, and the front no more than a 10mm to make the stance look a little more aggressive and fit the body lines. I just don't like the look of the wheels so far in the body ~Brian -------------------- 1999 Celica GT

It depends on wheel width and offset. If you run searches on the term "offset" or "spacer" you will find all the info you need.
