    How far has everyone gone with their Corolla?

    Your car looks good, Chris. Why the 245 tires on the back and not front? Front cant fit them? Need some front work to make em fit? Know if the tires impacted fuel economy?

    Changing size of tires from 16" to 17"

    When changing wheels and tires you want to keep the outside diameter(OD) the same as OEM - or as close to it as possible. When you put on a bigger wheel - 17" in your case you will need to have a tire that has less sidewall than your current tires to stay close to OEM OD. Less sidewall means you...

    White stains on tail light?

    Have you tried something a bit more abrasive - like Meguiars Ultimate Compound? I know some folks say don't polish/wax your lights but I do and have had no issues. Just take it easy. I used Ultimate Compound on by badly clouded Tundra lights and they looked new and, stayed that way for a long...

    Pioneer NEX

    Looks good. Is there any difference in boot time between this new camera display and the OEM one? Meaning, from the time you start the car until the camera is ready? (assuming you want to startup and reverse). This is often an issue with aftermarket camera displays - sometime you want to start...

    TRD springs: DIY or no?

    "...installation would probably cost around $200 with alignment...." If you DIY - what will your alignment cost - assume you can not do this yourself... Sounds like a no-brainer pay the $200

    Oil change

    It does not have to be Mobil 1 (not mobile - that is in Alabama:-) - a lot of people like Mobil 1, that is why it is frequently recommended/suggested. Any full synthetic 0W20 should meet Toyota's spec. 5 quarts for less than $25 at Walmart is hard to beat. This is what I use...

    Should I cancel my extended warranty?

    Check your warranty - inclusion or exclusion? Meaning - does it list what is included or what is excluded. Obviously, exclusion is better. Who sold you the warranty? A Toyota dealer or the clown on the corner(used car lot)?

    New tires recommendation

    Good Year are reasonable tires. Asking about brands will get you a bunch of opinions -mine included :-) I am a fan of good brand name tires - Michelin, Continental, Bridgestone, Good Year .... somewhat in that order. I assume you will want a good all-season tire. Look for mileage warranty that...

    Maintainence required = low mpg?

    I drive a 2014 Corolla LE (not an S) CVT - mostly highway and get ~41mpg in the summer and ~37mpg winter (bad winter gas). Had the car since new - got 32k miles right now. I am still striving for a 500 mile tank of gas - never quite got there but am close. How are y'all getting sub 30's? As far...
