rims look nice... but i'd rather have 17's too..
18's are too much imo.. 17 is perfect for street and show.

They look good to me! grin

I think that 18's look to big on Celica's that don't have body kits on them. That's the main reason I choose 17's for my car. I like the way the car looks too much to put a body kit on it.

hmmm..this seems to be a universal debate no matter where you live in the world except over here the issue is usually 18s vs 19s.

btw, those rims would look fine on a black celi! thumbsup

I've got wheels just like that, but in white. They are 17s. Here are a few pics. Are those the TZ-10's? Thats what I have.

Those would look great on your car. I dunno, 18's look a little excessive on such a small car.

They look good, can't beat the price either smile

How much do they weigh? How many .lbs is considered to heavey for a rim?

17's look pimp...much better than the stock 15 gt's. Just drop it after 2 weeks or so and it'll look even better.
