i think that guy is on cardomain.com. Look up 09 corollas there. Those wheels are way too big for the corolla. Other than that, looks good.

Wheels too big for any car is just plain hideous. A lot of SUV owners out there think they're ballin' with huge wheels, but none figure that more brake force is required to stop. Time to stop reading DUB magazine.

the car owner just happen to choose the wrong style of chrome wheels for his corolla. there are other chrome wheels which are way better than that. but i dont like the chrome on the door handles.

I can't see anything else on the car because those wheels command my attention in a bad way. They were the first things I saw and immediately The handles are horrible, as is the chrome thing on the bumper.

This isn't a "to each his own" event... this is just down-right poor taste and sense of what belongs. Chrome does not belong on our Corolla.

That luxury stripe is "ok", but will look out of place because it doesn't follow the window frame and there's no other chrome on the car.


My god those wheels.

Sure, they can do whatever they want to their Corolla, but IMO, this person is just copying the "style" they've seen in some "baller" or "bling" magazine, as applied to Chrysler 300s, Dodge Chargers/Magnums, Escalades, and other obnoxious SUVs.


I wonder if this guy modified his grill too, but I wouldn't want to see it.

the car owner even put chrome door handle plates. chrome door handles alone might look good tho.

somethings just not right... is it the wheels.. is it the handles .. or just the contrast with that god awful blue (i hate the rolla blue) ... i think the chrome makes it look like something out of the 80's only with rounder sheet metal

it wouldn't look half bad if the car was actually lowered.
