    High Speed Wobbling?

    Your owners manual will provide you information on how to contact Toyota directly and get the problem resolved. Weather conditions or not, a car should not be so unstable it's not safe to drive.

    Weapon-R Header

    At high rpm/racing use, yes, but on the street that's not what you want. You want low to mid range rpm torque and that's what smaller tube diameter headers achieve for you. This reminds me of an article that appeared in Super Chevy magazine years ago where they had a 1970 Chevy Monte Carlo...

    High Speed Wobbling?

    Don't talk to mechanics and service advisers who are not helping you with the problem your car has. These people are independent of Toyota Inc., working at an independent franchise. Contact Toyota Inc. directly and have them open a case file on your car so the problem can get fixed, or using...

    Tire and Rim Confusion

    When B.F.Goodrich goes racing at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, or off road racing at the Baja, etc., they use the very same design B.F.Goodrich tires that you can buy from Tire Rack, or wherever. B.F.Goodrich is the only tire company in the world that does this and I think that says just incredible...

    Tire and Rim Confusion

    Well, Firestone does make some very good tires, but keep in mind that aside from high-end vehicles with high performance suspensions, original equipment tires don't tend to be too great, regardless of the brand of tire. Why? Because when it comes to vehicle manufacturers selecting an original...

    High Speed Wobbling?

    Note; if there is a factory problem with the steering or suspension on your Corolla and you install aftermarket springs, Toyota Inc. is not going to help you out with the problem anymore. Address the problem first before doing anything else.

    Tire and Rim Confusion

    I have no idea what the offset is, but with any of the 210 wheels that Tire Rack has for your Corolla, the offset, etc., will fit your Corolla just fine. You can call Tire Rack directly at their listed phone number and speak to one of their experts. They wont steer you wrong. :thumbsup:

    Tire and Rim Confusion

    My pleasure DJ. By the way, I'd like to add, when installing aftermarket wheels, this is an opportunity to improve the ride, handling and even the fuel economy of your Corolla by using wheels that are lighter in weight than the original wheels. When we can reduce the weight of the wheels, very...

    High Speed Wobbling?

    I looked up that tire on TireRack.com and it seems to be a very good tire, especially if you want to drive fast in the rain. It has very good wet performance survey results and very good reviews. I did notice though that the original equipment tires for the 2014 Corolla S have a, "W", speed...

    Weapon-R Header

    What you can do is look for smaller tube diameter headers, because this design helps to produce more torque in low to mid rpm ranges where your car lives, which will not only improve throttle response and power, but also improve fuel economy. The additional benefit is that when you come across...

    Weapon-R Header

    Sorry DJ, but them's the facts and I'm sticking to them. :):thumbsup: Headers are fine for high-rpm power 4,000 rpm +, (i.e. racing), but for speeds we see toodling around town, the reduced exhaust backpressure/over-scavenging of the cylinders, reduces torque, throttle response and fuel...

    Tire and Rim Confusion

    The 45 is the aspect ratio, which means the tire's sidewall is 45% as tall as the tire is wide. Using the original equipment 17" rim diameter makes this all very easy. :yes:This is one of those times when we don't have to make things harder than they really are. http://www.TireRack.com has...

    High Speed Wobbling?

    DJ - So do you have any updates on this problem? Have you contacted Toyota directly to open a file for this problem?

    Door Moldings Removal?

    I have no idea. However those door moldings protect the doors from getting dented, particularly from parking lot door dings, which will retain the value of the car.
