Tire size??, Whats the biggest? Options

[chucho]

Whats the biggest rims/tires can you put on w/o rubbing?? Just got it and I'm looking at some 17s. I want to know if i have to worry about rubbing thanks.

[CCCP]

I'm pretty sure the biggest is 18.

[Neipas09]

someone on here is rollin on either 19s or 20s.
As long as you got wheelwell space then you can fit a tire in there. You can always buy spacers to make you rim stick out a little more incase you put on like 22s and they rub.

1equizitcelica has 19's

and dude don't buy spacers to make your well stick out... I would 17"s say look the best

[95STCelica]

17s or 18s look the best, 1ezquizitcelica goes thru at least like 5 pairs of 19s and 20s a year, but he has hydros..im guessing 19s is the general limit for a celica

[Blackcelliman]

I just got 18's and there is a little bit of rubbing when I cut the wheel all the way to the right. The tire size has alot to do with rubbing. I have a 40 series tire, but if the roads around you are not that bad, go with 35's.

[chucho]

so 17s will fit fine, i don't want 2 go bigger than that.

[presure2]

my sig is w/ 17"s and a 1.5" drop...you can fit 18"s...but ya risk denting rims if your roads arnt good..

[hi_rider]

Even in 17, make sure you get quality rims if you don't want to roll on with square rims in a month....I spent close 500$ cdn in wheels repair last year with 17 Mille Miglia ...The roads are pretty bad around here too.

I would agree...yours look perfect on your celi....what kind of tire did you get?...just curious...

[Blackcelliman]

The last rims that I had were 17's. I had 215/45's with them and I had no problem with rubbing. If your gonna get 17's, I would suggest this tire size.

[chucho]

What is a good size so i don't mess up my speedometer? 17s & 16s
I'm looking at 17s w/ 205/40
or 16s 205/40 or 225/50
thanks

[hi_rider]

I wanted to get 17's but think that realisticly 16's are lighter and would be better since the 7AFE is a bit underpowered to say the least. Can i get 215 wide 16" wheels because other than just looks there is no benefit from bigger wheels unless you have a good bit of power. Im just looking for a wider wheel and think I can save money by going with 16" rims and matching tires.
