Scored some rims for daughter's Corolla

[Pliablemoose]

Scope out the rims I found for daughter's car, I managed to get them on yesterday.

They're take offs from a Scion Tc Corolla Got the rims and new tires (some generic Chinese tires Suny???)

<----Mumbles about $50 worth of lug nuts I had to order...

Those look good! I didn't realize that the Corolla had the 5x100 lug pattern.

They changed to it in 03' with the new model. Used to be 4x100 till then.

I have a 2006 corolla with 17" Matrix XRS rims. I think the 17" xrs and the scion rims look great. My only concern at the moment is that her speedo will be off, but only a bit. the CE has 185/65/15, and the scions are 215/45/17. According to the tire calculator, the speedo will be off .6%. While not a great deal, I figured it would be something to point out

those compliment the car pretty well. just a tad bit ricey, but way better than anything else I've seen on a corolla.

I don't think they look ricey at all. In fact, I thought the car looked like a VW when I first opened the pic.

Looks good PM! 😉

You're already off by that much based on the tire tread you have left.
