USA Rims Rims Rims

I just got my 01 corolla not to long ago. Now that I have it I want to upgrade the wheels and tires. I want to go 16', but im confused on which to choose. I currently have these in mind:

http://www.upgrademotoring.com/wheels/enkei/rpf1.htm

http://www.upgrademotoring.com/wheels/gramlts57c.htm

and maybe even these at 15'

http://www.upgrademotoring.com/wheels/gramlts57pro.htm

The enkeis have a +43mm offset so is that going to be an issue running 16x7?

My suspension is currently stock but i am also looking into changing that too..

Ksport maybe? ground control with god knows what struts??

again i know this probably has been asked a million times but i would appreciate the help.

I'd say get the Enkeis but in +40 offset at least. I can't remember what offset the 98-01 Corollas come with, but I think it's 39 so the closest you stay to that offset the least fitment problems you'll have.

ooo i see, so in that case I should go for the 15' as they have a +41 offset right? Thanks for you help.

my friend put a set of these stock Scion rims on his corolla S. i think they're 16"s but i could be wrong. Other than that they look quite nice on the car and prolly wouldnt cost much since a lotta Scion owners go for new aftermarket wheels.

exactly! my friend's corolla S was black, had those scion rims and on trunk lid it had a small decal that read "TRD Supercharger" hehe it was a total sleeper! He was running 6lbs+ boost on stock internals. Too bad it was an automatic. And now he gave his mom the car to drive around while he picked up an 06 Honda Accord Sedan 5spd

How much is it to get the dealership to calibrate the speedometer when You get different size wheels?
