The_Instigator 11-11-2005, 09:44 PM check out www.tirerack.com they have winter packages that might have the 16" sizes XD40tC 11-11-2005, 09:50 PM Would 16's be better? Or do you just have some lying around that fit? By the way whats up dude?!!! boostedscion 11-14-2005, 06:02 AM at least focus more on the width for good traction on the snow rather than rim size AntwonePeterson 11-14-2005, 06:06 AM I kind of want 16"s too. I just want thicker tires. donscion 11-14-2005, 06:44 AM i have 15's up for sale brand new in the box from toyota pm me for price tCb00b 11-15-2005, 12:21 AM You want a thinner tire for winter so it can cut through the snow and grip on the asphault underneith. There is a tirerack consultant on this site somewhere. And there are a couple treads on snow tires already. I have a set of 17's I'm gonna run with Bridgestone Blizzak WS-50's for the winter. donscion 11-15-2005, 12:28 AM bump, for price, cmon guys still for sale 15's brand new in box from toyota - pm me for price - the skinnier the better! great low price! jbillakdsm 11-16-2005, 02:22 AM Get a set of used 16" Celica GT-S rims. Run a 205/55 16 tire because that's the closest match. You don't need different lug nuts and the center caps from the tc fit the center of the celica rims. donscion 11-16-2005, 02:26 AM bump d_gage 12-09-2005, 09:37 PM Get a set of used 16" Celica GT-S rims.
