Hey Guys, Ive been on a search for quite a while now and i cant figure out what kind of rims would look best for my Toyota Celica Gt.
If you guys have any suggestions, i would be very delighted to know your opinion.

Thanks guys,
Victor

way to small on our cars I dont think so. My car came with 14" stock steelies. Those were way small. now the gt came with 15" allow wheels, small.

But the 16's are a perfect fitment between track and look. Yes Ive seen 17's on a celica before from past meets and I do agree they look good with 215/45R17 tires. Im currently running 16" motegi ff7 right now and I like the look. With the coilovers I will buy the drop and gap will look great. Might I remind you that im looking for lightweight rims so 17" ultraleggera would weigh about 1.5 pounds more per tire. lighter wheels more power. and also since the spokes on the ultraleggera are long and skinny, a 16" rim will make the spoke look a little thicker becuase it will look more compact, logically thinking, whether or not thats true I will have to see them in person.

the 17x8 weigh 3 pounds more than the 16". and they are an inch wider which is where it adds most of the weight. so the 17" are a definate no!
