Ive had my celica for about 3 years now and just started to jump into the aftermarket...uuh market! i was wondering about putting eibach sportlines on stock ST wheels with 185/60/r14's on them. I dont really have enough cash to buy rims but i would like to increase the handling of my car. any advice on how this would look or opinions on this idea? thanks

your handling will improve if you lower the center of gravity... new sturts will aslo help alot.. you can upagrade your suspension minus the wheels and tires.. but remeber that you tires are the only part of you car that touches the ground.. so wider the better for handling and tires with a good amount of grip will make you feel stuck to the road on truns and high speeds..

Thanx for the info guys. Also, i wouldnt mind getting some stock GT rims for really cheap with some tires, that way ill have some more traction, and would look a bit better with some sportlines. Any info on where i could find some or who is selling theirs?

I'd recomend posting a want ad on a 7th gen site for GTS rims. 16" and they normally sell for 400-600 with decent tread left on the tires(not to mention they look fairly decent on a 6th gen). In that price range, it's almost the same price as getting a new set of tires, but the rims come with them. |
