ok...i am trying to put bigger rims on my celica...i am lookin to get 17's and i was wonderin if i could fit them and if so what size tires will i need like u know the width and series...i was told 215/40-17...can that work...please help me

My Celicas wheels are Motegi MR7 17" and Bear 205/40R17 Yokahoma Road Tires. I do change these though when I'm on gravel for racing purposes. I plan on getting new wheels though. I'm saving for either the OZ Chrono Evo. or the OZ Superleggras.

well do u think that if i get the 215/40-17 will they rub on the inside

Doubt it, those aren't much bigger.

I thought the GT-Four had 4 disks, not just drums on the rear.....
Come to think of it, I have never seen an AWD car with only drums on the rear.....
