It can be done but you would have to convert your 5x100 lug pattern to a 5x114.3. Because of this, I don't think I've seen a member put mkIV rims on a Celica, but that's not to say it hasn't happened.

The offset and size of TT rims would agree with celicas, but yes youd need to get hub adapters. Also TT rims go for +$400, they are not cheap for stock rims.

Okay thank you for the information and they do ask a pretty penny for them. especially for polished ones, and that price on top of hub adapters may not be the smartest move for me right now.

TT rims are polished chrome and are larger than Unpolished NA rims in every aspect.

I had Supra TT wheels on my Celica before. Sadly, I think I only have pics of when the rears were on. Hang on, let me see if I could find the pic.

EDIT: Sorry guys, can't seem to find the pic. Must be on my other computer. Will post if I find it.

The n/a rims generally have slimmer spokes than the TT rims and are smaller.



However, there are rims like you are thinking of on the n/a's.

Oh I see that now, thanks for pointing that out to me. And may just stick with the stock 15" GT alloys and just give them a restore.

Yea some NAs had 18s(TT size) just weren't polished. Also polished 16"(na size) are out there but very rare.

These are not good looking rims imo kindasad.gif

Have you not considered the 7gc GT-S rims ? Go straight on, cheaper and look better than these i think.....
