Alot of wheels for older corolla's and the like are 14X8 ..or 14X9 or 15X12 because of the huge flares they put on them for the N2 race series .
mmmmm price for one jack ass, it not like there was a million n2 race cars out there those rims are arre and pricey in america, and most come in 240 offsets, not 0 or lower

my brother has a set of 14x7.5 compomotive mesh with like a 0 offset. he has them on his 85 celica gt-s with the stock celica/supra fender flares and the wheels are flush with the edge of the flare. lots of polished lip. i also have a set of enkei 92 mesh 15x7 0 offset that are on my ae86 and they fit perfect, you can see pics in my for sale thread. i found those wheels in a junk yard down here in bradenton. just go out and look, never know what you can find. the key with older toyota's is the offset, you really aren't going to be able to get a 16 or 17 in the right size. my favorite wheel would be a 16x7 panasport ($225 a piece) or a 15x7 SSR reverse mesh!!!
