As a previous gze owner, my humble opinion is that unless you go turbo the 15x8 is TOO MUCH...

Unless you hate drifting of course, or have too much money to spend around and too much time to spare in searching...

Imagine that in my 0,9 bar boost 4agZe I had 15x7 rims and changed to 14x7 CelicaSupras.

I think you better stick to these two sizes also Smile

What does wheel size have to do with drifting? I drift on 9J rims with a stock engine and have done for a long time.

I have some 15x8j Rims for sale, super rare and super expensive mind. £500 UK for a PAIR.

Everything drifts man..
We re talking on why it does it.

As I said lets NOT ruin this topic more.

Is there an admin willing to clear all these posts???

Agreed...this was not exactly helping so7urno much so I split the topic.
If anyone feels inclined to further debate the (de-)merits of wide wheels/tires feel free to do so.. if not then I'll lock this later on..

cheers..
