I am entertaining the idea of changing out my current rims in favor of deep dish rims. Have some questions grin

1) are deep dish rims typically put on cars that have fender flares / widebody? I do not have these. I do have VS FFGT, and am wondering if going deep dish would enhance the look. (check my profile)

2) where is a good place I can get deep dish rims (yes, i've tried google already), and what price range can I expect?

3) what is a recommended tire size and offset for 18's for deep dish?

Get the basic 8.5 in the front and
9.5 in the back. They will run anywhere
from 4000-15000 depending on the rim and
tire dimesnion and brand.

It can be done without flares. Based on these pics anyway.

If you check out

www.german-wheels.com [german-wheels.com]

and try their FITMENT GUIDE. Enter toyota celica, and choose the "VN LINE 3 TLG" rim (3 piece rim). They're
selling, for the front 9x18", and rear 9,5x18".
