PS. Skidding happens when your brakes lock up, even the smallest of disc brakes can lock up wheels.

Yes, most (if not all?) Toyota and Scion wheels should fit...for example, I'm running Scion tC wheels. And yes, your GT has disk brakes all around.

So then the trd disk breaks will fit on my celica then since they were on a tc?

the main thing about them i liked were that they were red and they looked cool biggrin.gif and it would go good with my white car.

because mine are rusting out..... or is there a way to clean them

heres an example pic i found online



sorry if this is a stupid question

I was talking about the wheels, I have no idea about the brakes.

You can clean the rotors by driving your car. When you hit the brake pedal your brake pads will clear away the rust like sandpaper.

guys please stop this now... SEARCH... look in the right areas... stickies are amazing

do not keep feeding this guy when this stuff has been covered a thousand times
there is not a chance that BBK will fit without a lot of modification

The wheels fit. The brakes will NOT fit.
And BBKs do absolutely nothing unless you also upgrade the master cylinder and increase the number of pistons in the calipers. Larger diameter rotors only help dissipate heat more efficiently (for endurance on a track) since there is more mass. They have nothing to do with stopping power at all whatsoever. Most people buy them just to look cool.

You can sand them and paint them. Look around on this site, there should be a billion howtos on how to do it.
As for those brakes, you are talking about a 2,000$ brake system upgrade. Not exactly the type of thing you buy because you think yours a rusty looking.
