    Arrow WTB: Wheels for my Celica

    Looking for 17" wheels with preferred 8" width and around +35 offset, I think +25 will still work okay, but I can't fit +45 due to strut clearance. And the bolt pattern needs to be 5x100.

    Styling wise, I'm rather fond of how the Enkei RPF-1s look, so something similar would be great. I'm open to suggestions for anything that isn't too flashy and no chrome.

    Budget wise, I priced out 4 RPF-1s and 4 Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Spec tires on TireRack.com and with taxes/duties/wheel locks/centre caps it added up to around $2300

    That's quite steep for me, but I could manage it. Though I'd really be happy with getting tires and wheels for around $1500.

    So if anyone has something like that kicking around that they wouldn't mind selling me, or if you know of anyone who is trying to get rid of some wheels, or know of a particular shop that could find something for me, please let me know!

    Thanks!

    Lol belive me I wouldn't mind going bigger, but the factory wheels at 16x7+45 just barely clear the struts, not to mention the 2.5mm gap between the caliper and inside of the wheel :P I have thought of pulling the fenders a little, but I don't think I want to be too invasive on the body yet. Also the 5x100 doesn't help when it comes to finding odd sizes, everything good is in 5x114
