I have a Celica AT200, and is currently looking for some new wheels and tires. What is the perfect wheel size on my Celica? I am planning to lower it too.
Any answers will be appreciated!

Guys, you must have very good roads all around to use these size of tires, previous owner of my GT, who lives in Germany (great new road everywhere, no speed limit on highways) had 17" 215/40, it looked nice but I´ll kill chassis after few kms here in Czech Republic because of terrible roads :
 So I´ve decided to keep original 15" rims, it´s nothing special but it´s more for performance and not just for look so I like it :  Btw: what is your approx. fuel consumption on 215 or 225 tires ? --------------------  ´95 T20 GT |
