Hello guys.
At last I'll get my all time favorite wheels very soon. tongue.gif
Till I get, I have such question.]
I'm going to buy spacers too, but just for information can I install them on my GT4 without spacers? I mean a front one.

Thanks

oem is 7.5 inch wide. so you might hit or miss. your really just taking the chance.

I can install any wheels with hubcentric spacers, right?

depends on the spoke design,

stock rims have curved spokes to just barely avoid the brakes by 1-2mm, the same offset wheels with flat spokes will probably grind off the celica lettering from your brakes

your offset is high not sure if the spokes would hit those big brakes. test fit is best or someone who has run a similar or close spec wheel on theirs. With spacers, for sure you'll clear them.

They were my favorite wheels for a long time. So now I have a chance to install them on my celica.

p.s. As I know there's no gt4 on regamasters, right? or maybe no pics. rolleyes.gif

the backspacing on those looks to be very minimal. yeah, they definitely wont fit

I'm inclined to say you'll need MINIMUM 10mm spacers,

A friend of mine has had numberous sents of alloys (Kei Velocity 18's, Lenso RS5 18's, Toora 18's and the majority of them have needed spacers)

As said before as they have a flat face to the rim they'll leave you less clearance and as you've got ET45 you're going to be very sunk in the arch anyways.

I'd be inclined to say get some 15mm spacers to bring the ET to 30, you'll need longer studs though and then you should be fine smile.gif

I'd say it should be ok just be sure that your car isn't too lowered else you'll need your arches rolling etc so it's more grief than it's worth IMO
