Thanks, yeah I really thought they'd look good, so I bought them. Although I should of gone with 195/60-R15 tires :razz: These 195/55's make the suspension, which is stiff feel even harder.

If you want to go higher profile you should go with a smaller rim. 195/60/15's would be much too large for your car; your speedometer would be way off. I have 195/50/15's on my car, because the stock tires were 175/65/14.

Actually, the speedo was off by +10% before.. so if I was going 110kph, I'd only have 100 in reality, now its 3% by using a tire calculator. The corollas here have 175or165/85 R13's stock... I had 175/70 R13's before.. BTW, 195/60 R15 would spin, I checked it afterwards :smile: speedo can be adjusted for deviation :wink:
