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?

Ok so I'm back here looking for spacers again. What size is best to where I can get my 7th gen gts rims as close as I can outward? Without having to roll my fenders? I read on a forum where it said the specs for the 7gc GTS rims is 16x6.5 +39 (205/50/R16 Advan tyres). I also read the other forum about "flush fit wheel fitment". That forum helped me out a bit but isn't the "flush wheel" look different for all rims because of the sizes?

That forum helped me out a bit but isn't the "flush wheel" look different for all rims because of the sizes? according to the chart because you have 6.5 wide wheels with et39 to be flush you will need to bring the front offset to 0 and the rear to -15 which means you will need 39mm wide spacers for the front and 54mm spacers for the back which is ridiculous wide. and i dont think you can get a 39mm wide if there are spacer that wide would be 40mm for the front and 50mm or 55mm for the back. i wouldnt recommend that. it is extremely wide. if you want to be flush i would get other wheels. or just get 25mm all around to bring the wheels out more. and you wont have to roll the fenders unless you car sits really low. if there is more than 2inches gap between your wheels and fenders dont worry about rolling them. it wont hit it. unless you have a lot of weight. unless is this close to the fender dont roll it. test your wheels then decide to roll it or not.

I don't what my lowering springs specs are but they're AG lowering springs. Don't know and never heard of it before but it's what my car was sitting on when I purchased it from the previous owner. I just want to bring it out as close to flush as possible without having to roll fenders or running aftermarket cambers. I was hoping someone in this forum had added spacers to their 7gc gts rims before and help me out.
