just wondering if anyone with gts wheels off a 7th gen has any input on reccomended tires for those wheels?
i am looking in to getting 215/45/16 but im open to suggestions with about anything?
(i.e. like ride height, driveability, steering etc.)

in future i should have kyb struts and sportline springs.

also going with that, i wanted to know what color of rim would look good on my car?
i see manphibian's celica with the bronze which i really like since my celi is red as well
but again im up to suggestions!

getting 214/45R16 are an attainable size. Although with that size you will be only to get 3 types of tires. Falken Azenis RT615K with a utg of 200, Dunlop Direzza Star Specs utg 200, and Kumho Ecsta Ku36 180 utg. Somewhat pricey I since all of those tires are extreme summer/autocross purpose. Anothing this is that those 215/45R16 are meant for 7" wide rims and the 7th gen's are 6.5 inches.

Here are some 205/50R16 Tires on 7th gen wheels with kyb and eibach sportline springs.

205/50/16

Thanks for the pic! looks real great!
the exact set up i would like ( i mean whole car with skirts hood etc!)

205/50 is the stock size for these wheels. On my 7th gen i have 205/55, gives a better ride comfort. see crappy cell pics below.
just remember different brands,models, have different thread heights so even the same tire sizes can look smaller or bigger than the other.
