they arent the same wheels... the ones in that celi brochure are 15 inchers, and the gold versions have a machined lip... there is also a slight inset for where the lug nuts are >wink.gif>

Car #3: 98 Accord LX- purchased 5/06, totaled 8/06Car #2: 95 Celica GT- purchased 8/03, current daily driverCar #1: 01 Focus ZX3- purchased 5/01, sold 8/03
yea that guy is trying to pull a fast one
I have to agree- TOM's stuff is always high quality and as alrady stated, $$$... TOM's center caps yes, but the wheels themselves, who knows...

EDIT- actually, the size would imply that they are TOM's wheels meant for the 7th gen. celica. There is a similar design in silver that was available for the UK market for early 7th gens, but it was labeled an original toyota accessory >confused.gif>

So does that mean that er... Tom's 6th gen wheels were the predecessor to the 7th gen wheels?

not really- they made lots of stuff for all toyotas- particularily for the sports models... the 6th gen wheels were shared between all the ST2** chassis code models- more popular on Carina ED's and Corona Exiv's most likely...

was it me or did they redesign the arm rest like most of us have always wanted too?

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.
