r those off of a celica?

[mistamatrix]

Yup.

[xrs22]

i was thinking about getting a set like that so's i can sell my stock chrome one's. Too damn hard to keep clean, there nice for someone who wants to keep there ride stock. I just need a set to ride around on till i get those sold and buy something else.

nice wheels ... beats the steel wheel look any day Eh? I havent got the car yet But I have a set of Celca alloys just the 15" With the snows allready mounted and balanced Ready to GO.....

I couldn't get myself to rock the steelies. Maybe if I had an actual winter beater.
I've seen the Trix w/ the 15" Celica GT rims. Looks alright. Only thing is the wheel wells on the Matrix are so huge they make it look like 13" wheels.

that's why i don't really want the 15's. 16's i could do i saw a couple of sets on ebay. Atleast with those i can repaint them a better color and kick it up a knotch.

Nice rims mista !
I did notice them in the last meet pics you posted and must admit, they look much better than the steelies.
When you get tired of them like your 16"s, let me know

i don't want to post a whole new thread so i'll use this one. Can anyone determine the bolt pattern of this wheel.

[mistamatrix]

^ Looks like a dual bolt pattern rim...5x100/5x114.3

[xrs22]

that's what i was thinking but wasn't sure and i was waiting for the guy to forward me the size. I caught these one's on ebay.

lookin' good! Can't go wrong with the celica wheels. They're plain but sleek at the same time.
