I am looking for information about the stock wheel size.

1994 Celica GT

I am guessing it is 15x6.5 and 5x100 bolt pattern offset of about 38mm but I would like to know for sure. I am more basing this off knowledge of the 7th gens.

Thanks

Mark

That's the steelie size for the 7th gens. The 6th gens are 14x5.5 or 14x6 I think. They're not very wide. I believe the offset is 32mm (6th gens steelies) or something around there. The offset usually is affected only by the width of the rim... the 6th gen steelies being a lot more narrow.

I called a Toyota dealer and told him I had curbed one of my wheels, and asked iould get another for me... He said he had a couple wheels available. The steelies were 15x6.5, but the alloys were 15x7. Can anyone confirm this? Seems a bit wide to me.

Thanks

That's the correct size of the 6th gen Alloys, 15x7... but I'm not too sure about the steelie. The 15x6.5 steel wheel is for sure avail for the 7th gen. Simple task is, to take your car to the dealer, and say, "I want another one of these."

If you are looking for the size of the alloy 5 spoke wheels like on most 94 GT's, their 15x7 just like the one pictured below.

And if you try to order them from a dealer, make sure you know which one you want because it comes up with 2 different part numbers.One is about $30 more and it does'nt match the color of my wheels.My wheels are a solid color, but the wheel that will show up if you order the higher priced one, will be the same color except for the area in between the spokes.It looks like a darker shade of that same color, and also looks clear coated.I bought one off ebay and it came in a toyota box with the part number attached to the side, but I have not seen a celica yet, to have the same wheels on it like this wheel.When I asked toyota about it, they said they showed 2 different part numbers but neither showed a picture or even a description, so I figure the other part number is probable the one like most cars have on them.

It might also be the same wheel I saw on a ST coupe the other day too, so make sure you ask them if it is'nt the right wheel you can replace it with the other one.

If you order the cheaper one, let us know what you get when it comes in.

The GT wheels are 15x7, there was a standard alloy (all the same color) and a "polished' one where the face is polished and clear coated while the sides of the spokes are darker color, mine came with the polished ones, (didnt know there were 2 kinds til after I bought a set off the web, they were the wrong ones of course) now have 2002 GTS 16" on mine, thinking about selling those and the originals and getting a full set of the polished rebuilt ones, My orig ones have a little curb rash.
There is a company "rebuilding" these wheels, cant remember the name at the moment, seem to remember $160/wheel for the polished, do a search for " wheels toyota " should find them...
