My stock tires had dry rot and almost no tread. I decided to keep the stock wheels for winter tires next season and get a different set of wheels for the summer I wanted something OEM I saw the a bunch of newer Corolla S wheels on Offerup and reached out to the sellers. I ended up picking up this set for less than the cost of two new tires. I was getting 55mpg via the MFD prior to the new wheels. I'll update this thread, with new mpg, once I've driven around 300 mixed miles. Before and after pic iPhone ?
Thanks, It's not many miles but I was averaging around 55 miles local suburbs, really babying it. I got around 48 trying to keep up with everyone. I'll post another update once I get to around 300 They definitely feel heavier iPhone ?
Wow that looks really good! Just bought the fiancé a 2015 Corolla S Plus with those rims and I didn't know they fit so well on a Gen 2. She might just have to watchout because her rims might suddenly switch cars
Prius almost seems like a separate company, with all their march-to-a-different-drummers ideas regarding alloy rims and plastic covers. Meanwhile run-of-the-mill Corollas looking good! Are they 16"? I saw a set of those the other day, walking the dog.
The Corolla S wheels are 17 inchers.Feels a little like pulling an anchor, especially when accelerating?
its the weight. but the plastic covers are so lame. toyota should have just left them off and painted the wheels a better color. or better still only made touring wheels, painted a better color.
Feels like weights on your ankle... Now my Prius is only getting 45mpg, but I'm driving it like a normal car and keeping up with traffic. I'm throwing around the idea of putting some lightweight SSR C's on 16's with LRR tires. I think that might be a good balance of size and FE.
I haven't noticed a decrease in HWY, still getting 45mpg at 70mph. I only notice during starts, not so much on highway and suburb driving iPhone ?
