    Aside from the fender mods, I highly doubt you can go any wider than 195 tires with those on. . .

    Will definitely need them cambered in as well. . .

    Or, last resort:

    Fender flares. . .

    Soooo jealous of your car man haha. I envy these ST165s. I have 3 dream cars, one of which I already own. The 4th gen Celica ST165 and another 4th gen Porsche 911 Turbo S(been my dream car since I was 6-7 years old). Your car is a gem man. I;m really looking into getting a 165 some day :cheers

    lol I'm not jealous of you anymore. XD
    This is the only reason why I held back on those other meshies.
    So it doesn't say what it is anywhere on the wheels?
    I'd say it's either 5x114.3 or 5x120.65, cause those are the common bolt patterns for 5 lug meshies.
    Don't go killing people just yet! :black101 :hehe

    Find a lug adapter.

    And 4x100 mesh wheels are actually usually a lot easier to find.
    Just search your local craigslist or ebay or something.

    Not really, I was wondering where he got it and why and how much he got it for and what lead him to buy it lol. That 165 is just gorgeous. I really want one. I have a thing for Celicas, especially if they're black, and especially if all 4 wheels are getting power to the pavement!

    Jamezzy Well-Known Member Donated!

    Lol no we're just interested in the same color and car!

    If you look at my other cars they're either silver or black. Wouldn't mind dark blue though. All gloss for me, I don't favor metallics. On these cars atleast.

    No Nate, I'm not copying you haha. A darker blue than yours.

    When, I guess it's never to late to tell my tale :hehe. About 5-6 years ago I got in my first car accident in my integra cuss of an old man turning left out of no where! I was in the fast lane going about 45 then saw it coming an turned to the right side an slammed on my brakes an still but hit! He was in a old honda suv which pushed my radatior into my headgasket cover an made a hole. Before any of this happened my uncle got a 1989 celica Gt for free from another uncle (he's brother which I have many uncles 13 of them an 2 aunts). The celica was blue an my only pictures of it were on my older computer which the hard drive died... It was blue an was my first stick car! I love it a lot an well when your young to do dumb things.... an I was always trying to drift it when it rained an floored it every chance I had lol... In the end the transmission couldn't take it anymore an I end up giving it away to a someone at my church that needed a car.

    I few more years past an I wanted to have another car since my project was my integra which an auto :byodood.. I could only go so far with it an changing it to stick cost a lot, so I then started to look for another 4th gen that I loved to drive, looking into it more I found out that they made the *ALL-TRAC* I was stunned... an thought to myself I've got to get me one of those :drool5. So after half a summers time I got my first Trac which was my white ALL-TRAC named R2D2, It had a old leak but the turbo pulled so hard I was in love! took it to a shop and they said the Head gasket is leaking which normally happens when you don't take care of an all-trac so I said alright and got it rebuild. After I got the head back everything went back into the car, then it wouldn't turn! Opened up the ecu an there was a burnt spot on it... ended up being the wire harness but I was so mad an pissed at the mechanic when I was wait for him to find out what happened I picked up yet another all-trac! I got R2D2 in December 2010 an Vader in April cuss i was mad.. an R2 is still not fixed till this day due to the harness an that paying for it at the DMV will cost about 600 just to get it under my name.. which I may do later on once I get more money when I have a real job. Since I've had Vader I've been doing nothing but fixing him up to the norm an some wheels, which will be staying on for awhile since good wheel adapters cost alot an I'll have to get my fenders rolled/pulled before I can put fender flares on which should happen over the summer an a new paint job since it's been spray can bomb cheaply. All an all I have a lot of plans for Vader, a bike rank for sure, putting the louvers back on an fitted better and window visor! alright I think that's it haha.
