If you want to know what it will look like with all four wheels and tires, wait no more:

You did the cut and paste I was too lazy to do :)

Thanks!

No problem.  It didn’t take me more than 47 minutes, rounded down.

Man, it’s really going to need an alignment!

Ooo, looking good! I bet the ride will be better as well, as taller sidewalls often mean a bit better ride quality!

I’m still arguing with myself about if I should get white wheels or black wheels for the Corolla. I was leaning towards black but this has me thinking white would look pretty good.

Any thing not black so they are visible and can be appreciated, even graphite works

The ride with the factory 18s was pretty good even with the craptastic Goodyear Eagles, when I put the General G-Max AS-05s on it the ride improved even more, I honnestly don’t feel like I need higher sidewalls to improve ride quality (the ride quality, coupled with handling is a big part of what sold us on the Kona, its got genuinely excellent suspension tuning) .... But 215/60-16 Blizzak WS80s are *Way* cheaper than 235/45-18s. Also, the 16" Asetto Garas were on cleaeance.

Make it look like this:

Go gray.  Very subtle.

I really like the way the Integrales look on the Hoonigan Corolla. I just don’t know if my sanity could handle living with white wheels.
