I'm thinking of getting 15mm spacers up front and 25mm spacers in the rear. Will I need an alignment?

Also, I know the hub diameter is 54.1 mm, but what's the center bore? Is it the same?

Hiya Hector.

The center of my hub is 54.1 Think all celica's have the same dim. 94-99 atleast.

But if i wheare you i would go for 15 front and rear. You are messing around whit the stability of the car when you have differnt spacer front and back.

I was just advised about this so im not an expert. But the mechanic i spoke to told me that this is somthing you should try and avoid. Dont know if it cus i have a 4x4 or what but it kinda makes sense for me.

As of the alignment, That i dont know.

Hector if you do anything 15mm or more you need to go bolt on, and 20mm would be best, the studs will stick out if you use any less of a spacer

get an alignment after your coilovers. your car isn't even that low right now and im sure your negative camber isn't as crappy as mine, so im sure youre fine. it's not bad to have SOME negative camber because thatll help you in cornering . from what i know youre supposed to get your car aligned whenever you drop you car. i wouldnt do it if i were you because youd just be getting your alignment twice.

Doesn't matter if you have diff spacers front and back.

You shouldn't need an alignment.

You sure you only wanna go 15 in the front? That's not much.

My stuffs kinda sunken still with 25's all around, which I don't know why people are so scared of...I love them.

Center bore of what???

You dropped your car, get alignment no matter what. Alignment for those who dont know isnt just camber, alignment is a combo of camber, toe in or out, and caster angle. You can live with camber, but if your toe is out of whack that will eat the hell out of your tires waaaaaay faster than anything else. You seen my spacers and what the look is on my car. You dont have to run exact numbers front to back like Black_ST202's mech advised him because you're not gonna track the car heavily. If you just want the "fluuushed look" choose a spacer that makes your current offset closest to 0. If you want some "performance" out of it go follow the wheel offset thread. Im running both my set spacers on stock 15s and my 18s and I have no problem or hesitation going through a fun corner at 50+mph.

Lol Jon, don't worry, I already got my alignment after I dropped it! I'm fully aware of camber, toe, and caster

like i said, for those who dont know. post the specs/pics of the alignment sheet they were supposed to give you. I wanna see how good they did.

Alright, I gotta find them first... They're with the receipt.

Edit: Alright Jon, don't expect anything amazing. They thought I needed camber bolts at first but they read the data wrong. I told them I didn't need any but the wouldn't listen. Then when I picked it up, they were like, "Yeah, well.. we didn't use the bolts like we thought."

Idiots

Not bad at all, could've made the rear toe a bit better tho. I bet the car drives straight!
