yea, they'll fit with stock suspension, but they'll stick out past the fender a lot and look really goofy. if you want an 8.5 wheel, a better offset for a corolla would be something like +30 i think

I have +35 offsets on my XRS and they stick out quite a lot. I could not imagine how 13 would look. Quite ridiculous, if you ask me.
