Alright guys, I'm bringing this back so that I can make an educated decision on big wheels. I'm not looking for hella-flush, I just want big beefy wheels and tires to fill out the wells...

Big Wheels

The question is what will I need to get a +42 offset on these 9" wheels to fit on the my Abby (96 GT on eibach prolines w/GR2s)?

Stock offset isn't +42? I thought it was +35? Whatever. Just get an offset between 20-30 and you'll look good (depending on size). I have 17x8 +35 in the front and need about 5mm for flush. Same setup for the rears and need 10mm for flush.

up to 9.5" has been done in the rear, but 8.5" is the highest for the front (as far as i know, and i have researched this a lot)

dude, you'll need 20-25mm spacers. i dont know why people choose such high offsets....plus didn't someone mention that +45 wouldn't clear?

Honestly, that's really disappointing. I wonder if its different for the SuperStrut suspension....

Tell me about it. This exact wheel and size (17x9 +30) comes in 5x100 and is inexpensive, and I think it would look great on a celica! Someone please try it!

They look like Rota Torques

I thought about picking up a set that was 18X9.5 with a +35 offset. I may try to fit those as one of my buddies has a set on his 2J powered Cressida wink.gif

I have 17x7.5, ET45 with 215-40-17 tires and they clear just fine, there's plenty of room. I wouldn't imagine that an extra inch of diameter would make them not fit. I cannot wait to get rid of them in the Fall, I'm getting a set of Drag DR-31, 17x8, ET35. They look exactly like Rota Torques.
