Well firstly mate, il be the first to express interest in the Simmons rims..
And just seeing how the sub-box mounts in the rear hatch area! 2 15" subs would sure rattle that hatch window, among other things, haha.. What sort of dB were u getting with that setup?
Nah seriously, So the rims fitted your ra28 fine?
Were they made up to fit your car? ie correct offset for the standard ra23/8 celica front strut?
Do they guard out at all? or rub strut or anything at any point in turning wheel lock to lock?
Do you know the Offset of the rims?
Gold centre is good, what are the outer rims like? any dings, scrapes?
Ive pm'd u with a bid even tho im in adelaide, but a pic would be good, maybe even on the car if uve got one?
im willing to pay for them to be shipped to SA if the price is right.
Cheers,
Guy

heya,
yeah the sub box goes really hard.... never tested the db....
as for the rims.... they fit a 28 perfectly no dramas at all.
i think the offset is around 28 but not 100% i did measure it at one stage but cant remember.
the rims are good... i'll organise some pics soon

the car next to me in that pic is HYPO23 a ra23 celica, it has 17 in lensos.
will wigh the wheels for you.
the tyres have heaps if tread and wear pattern is good. one or both (cant remember, will look) of the back tyres have a scratch on the edge of the tread where it hit my guards when i first changed the diff (it is wider than the srock diff) they now fit well but i had to roll the guards and adjust panhard rod etc. The mark is now fitted to the inside of each wheel, i can take a pic and send to your e-mail if you like.
The rims fit perfectly on a celica with factory style diff and front suspension.... ie you dont need spacers or to change anything...

Sweet cheers, thanks for that re-assurance that theyll fit the stocker-type diff and front struts.. Thats what im running at present until the 18R-GE comes out sometime...
What diff did you change to?? like how much wider was it do you reckon?
Were you running corona or coil-over type front suspension?
Cheers,
Guy
yeah a pic would be great, no hurry:
