kaylee Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 ive got some 17" 4 stud alloys, there of a vauxhall and been told theyd fit toyotas? is that right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kara GTT Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Yes they might but it depends on the tire width as well i think Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 also depends on their offset and PCD..starlets are 4 x 100...dont even try putting 17's on a starlet, it will look gash, and handle gash Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 its true no bigger than 16s tbh Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SpeedFreak Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Agreed, no more than 15's ideally I think. Big wheels dont suit Starlets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starletraje Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 i wouldn't even go above 16's on my car and its considerably bigger than a starbo. they look ridiculous on anything less than a hummer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 problem is that the starlet is small and the wheels are closer together... so it just wouldnt sit nicely, and you would be unpleased with it.fit them to the rolla which is also 4x100 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kaylee Posted August 12, 2008 Author Share Posted August 12, 2008 im gonna keep them till i get a car and see what there like on, i might like them but might not.. can only say wether i will or not when there on! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
minxy Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I wouldn't go above a 15" i think they are perfect the bigger wheels will just make handling worse and look gash. From the handling side of things you don't want to have a first car that handles like shite as it won't last long. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 17s too big for a Starlet 16s maxBut yea they would fit as Vauxhall share the same pcd, although watch the centre bore it might be too big, in that case you would need spigot rings or if they are to small then they wont fitOh and watch the offset Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thunderpants Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 dont put any bigger than 16 inch would look like a starlet roller skate hehe. 16 inch is fine 15 inch is better although as starky says watch the centre bore as running wheels without spigot rings can lead to problems. and watch the offset as well.

ecksjay Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 when mine had 16's it tramlined like a c***, just didn't drive very nie at all. that may have been due to the tyres, but it did feel as though it was a little too light for anything that large, although it does work for some people if setup for it.compare that to my s14 which feels fine on 17's, although it does tend to 'grab' lines in the road as they're a good 9" wide Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kaylee Posted August 14, 2008 Author Share Posted August 14, 2008 im gonna keep them till i get my car and then see what i think, i know your all saying dont put 17s on but they were free anyway so might aswell wait and see, and see what i think of handling and that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
