    Be sure to get the lug nuts with them. They should look pretty good.

    Not sure what the O.E. tire size is for the Celica GT-S , but you want a 205/55/16 tire to keep your rolling diameter in check.

    EDIT: Ok I looked it up. The GT-S comes with a 205/50/16 tire. Thats going to be a little over 10mm's shorter than a 205/55/16, or the 15 inch tire you have now. It never hurts to go a little shorter. It can actually help your gearing some. However, a 10mm shorter tire will give you 5mm's more fender well gap. May not sound like much, but 5mm's can make a big difference visually. If that sort of thing is not important to you, then it really doesn't matter. When it comes time to replace the tires, then you can go with the 205/55.

    If they vibrate at speed, then yes, they need to be re-balanced. If the tires are in good shape and you plan on keeping them, it might just be easier to have them balanced before you install them.

    I'll post some, but I need someone to host them, I wil lget them tomorrow if it isn't raining.Also what if I go with 215/55/16,the calculator says my speedo will read 60.8 when I am going 60, with the 205/55/16 bit will read 59.8. I don't drive fast or anything, and was thinking that the wider tire may be better??????
