I could have sworn I watched something where Toyota Rep was reviewing the new CVT for the 2014 model and him saying that it was Do you think a regular auto tranny would take the abuse any better? Don't think so. If you drive like that you'll fudge any tranny up even manual. What's the point...

Keep rolla stock and buy a 600cc super bike. This way when you've got your need for speed you can get it out of your system and keep corolla stock and reliable, will give you a piece of mind. At least reliability played a huge role in me purchasing this car and I'm sure I'm not the only one...

Definitely 11th gen corolla. -least expensive -roomiest -least complicated -less things that can go wrong, cheaper to maintain -smoother ride - sedan vs hatch back even if by little. Larger overhang behind rear wheels and better noise isolation due to trunk. -most aftermarket parts if...

Hey guys, Was wondering how much rubber can I fit on my stock aluminum rims. They're the ones that look like Lexus or Avalon rims some of you may know what I'm talking about or just check my pics I'm running stock Michelin 16 55 205. I know I can go a size up in width to 215 no problem but...

I see trannies with 1-20k miles for our cars for $500 bucks everywhere you look. Considering how many 11th gen rollas out there there will never be a shortage of used parts especially since they're driven by younger drivers and no matter how you slice it they're lacking experience and will...

I'm contemplating installing a roof rack and would like one that's flush with the side supports as opposed to the ones where the bars are sticking out. Although even these are kind of ugly. I noticed that some vehicles have pre drilled mounting brackets under rubber rain gutters on the roof...

ZeCorolla man you've answered my question to the T. Thanks for confirming what I kind of assumed an noticed over the years. My worries have perished :) @jolly thanks for the additional info. Bottom line bran new configurations sometimes need time to perfect itself. Too bad they've had such...

Didn't mean to alarm anyone with the title but out of boredom I was researching vehicle reliability ratings, I think it was an article where it listed most cars that users returned due to lemon law. Anyway, few minutes later I came across an article where it seems like there was a significant...

Love it Chris, that LE with nicest front. IMHO not even the 2017 models S, SE compare to the 2014-15 or 16 LE front, well done.

Congrats man! I've had many sets of Bridgestone Potenza's and liked them, goodyears on the other hand are or at least have been nail/screw magnets, never again.

Hi guys, I was wondering, since there is a rear disk option on S model with 17inch wheels, and as most of you know the rest of the herd get rear drums which isn't exactly a bad deal if you're looking to save money in the long run and durability the drum provides. Though I would imagine that a...

My thoughts exactly Chris. I read something about CVT transmissions having a failure rate lower than 3% compared to traditional multi speed automatics which is astronomical in comparison. Also, CVTs started using steel belt which only makes them more durable, have fewer parts and if something...

I know it says not to tow but I'm going to risk it. Just like they advised not to put winter tires on front only and I've driven in snow all winter and freaking loved it, anyway..... I'm thinking the trailer is about 200lb, tractor another 200, maybe 300. I'ts about a 15 mile drive and I'll...

You're only seeing a side view, there's more to it from different angles. I think the rim should have some offset and not be completely flush with the tire, whichever one is like that would get my vote. This reminds me the type of wheels they put on S, SE and XSE models which are flush and...

Damn, that sucks. Is it only rubbing on the side which you've inspected or both sides up in the front? If only one side, I would reinstall the one in question to look like the other side. Also, perhaps it may have something to do with stock bushings as opposed to the ones that came with the...

If you go with let's say 35/R18 or 25/R18, 40/R18 or whatever you plan to put on those 18s, isn't the wheel diameter going to increase drastically to the point where the car will be even slower off the line? I was thinking about using a taller, beefier tire to get rid of the wheel gap but I...

Definitely B. Much cleaner look. Had something similar on my Accord back in a day so I like this look.

I

No doubt that by Toyota offering those springs as an option it adds confidence, that's huge actually. I guess you're right if you only drop it 1.5 inches it shouldn't affect it much compared to something way more drastic. Let us know how it rides and if it sits too low if you load it up with...

Congratulations Chris Denton! I'm so tempted to lower my 15 LE Premium but have always had some concerns after watching friends, family do it to their Hondas etc...I think we don't have to worry about it on Corollas since they have a torsion beam set up rather than independent rear suspension...
