Before getting bigger wheels, get a suspension setup that can handle the drop, unless you aren't going to drop your celi

18s are big and expensive............... I would go 17s, but that's just my opinon.

TRD kit is supposedly discontinued, oreo has one and may be able to point you where they still may stock some but id be willing to bet my paycheck you wont find one.
17s are probably the prefered size for a celica, any bigger and daily driving will dent them up bad via potholes and such plus 19s and bigger will screw up your spedo gauges because they'll change your overall diameter of the wheels... and to keep the speedo reading right with 18s you need some super low pro tires, 215/35/18, over at celica.net theres quite a few people who will testify their 18s, however tight they look, just couldnt stand up to regular roads with such small tires. as far as kits go the 2 most common are the Zephyr AKA z-glide lip kit, and the invader AKA veilside AKA shogun kit. the 3rd kit thats available stateside is the combat kit. theres also JDM kits such as c-one, varis, way-glide, border, gangs jail, along with a few others, these kits more than likely will run you right about 3K to import one before installation. theres also a GT-4 conversion you can do and that requires the GT-4 hood along with the front bumper. hope that helps! welcome to the boards! if you want any info on any of the parts i listed check em out on the parts database on the 6gc main page. -------------------- ![]() Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all No but I don't buy it Like anything you do, as anyone you are Cause I'm...

I have 18 on mine and they don't rub but I haven't lower it yet because of my kit. I don't think I will be able to get into the grage if I lower it. Check my sig for pic. Welcome
