Does a wheel adapter exist to make a 5x114 pattern wheel fit a celica?

azntrd2k1,
I have those same spacers. I bought them before I decided not to be a cheap ass and get some custom rims to fit my widebody. If you're thinking about getting them to fit on a stock body celica, you may want to think about this...
You will need to add however many milimeters the spacer is to the fitment offset. For instance, on the celica, you are looking at an optimal size of 17x8 +35 offset. With the adapters, you will be looking at 17x8 +65 offset. This will look kinda odd.
Your other option would be to pop off your hubs and have a machine shop press them into a 5x114.3 bolt pattern. My boyfriend used to do this with trucks back in the day.
Hope this helped!
Keep rollin!

That's WRX STi with supersize calipers offset. :AF:

+65mm offset because of diff calipers?! that's crazy, almost insane that means that your rims will have a weird ass curve to them, i dunno... i'm just a girl, i probably don't know what i'm talking about, right?




why yes i do!

+65 is an insane offset. There would be a huge gap between the hub and the face of the wheel.

The STi come stock with a +50ish offset because of the size of the calipers.

Are you using them now? Can I borrow to see how far my wheels will stick out?

They will sit 1.18" (30mm) farther out than they do right now.

The +65 offset is correct if you want it to sit flush (8" wide wheel), and i don't know of ANY wheel that comes in that offset (unless they were custom made). Even the wheels made by Rays for STi max out at +53.

I'm not sure so ...is there a way to swap out the wheel hub and brake discs in order to have a different ( 114.3 ) lug pattern?

You can have the redrilled to any BP that you want.
