Ok. So I have a 97 Celica GT that's riding on the 7gc gts rims. As you all know the rims are "sunk" in without spacers. I've been thinking a lot about getting spacers for it but I don't know what size will be best? I was thinking 25mm in the front and 30mm in the back? I'm just worried if it'll be too far out to where it'll be rubbing. My Celica is on AG lowering springs (Never heard of AG but it was on the Celica when I bought it). Also are the eBay one's legit?

I have some info for you as well...
1) studs on your car has 24mm length (not whole but just that part outside the hub) 2) when you install bigger spacer than 5mm you need to replace your OEM studs with some longer. so... 5mm - just install them (no need to do anything) 10mm - you need longer studs to install 15mm - you need longer studs to install 20mm - you have two options. a) longer studs to install or b) use spacers with own studs 25mm - you have two options. a) longer studs to install or b) use spacers with own studs 30mm - you should use spacers with own studs 35mm - you should use spacers with own studs how big spacer you need depends on ET of your rims and width of the rim... I have ET35 rims with width 7inches and it is looking like this with 20mm spacers (front and rear):    Those spacers are with own studs because even if it is less than length of OEM studs (for 4mm) like this:  It fits with no problem because wheels has some space on the rear side (I hope you know what I mean). Anyway since front is too much I decided to install there smaller once (10 or 5)... probably just 5mm to avoid changing the studs. Hope this helps. -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)
