    :roflmao: :roflmao:

    Tein S-Techs will give you probably the most aggressive drop if thats what you're looking for and of course, Tein makes quality products so you won't have to worry about quality issues.

    wheel choice... um, dont get anything bigger than 17s

    you need to be more specific.

    look into eibach springs, TRD springs, tein s.tech, ground control, suspension techniques....

    but you might want to also look into new dampers/shocks/struts/whatever you want to call them. look at Koni and KYB. tokico's are junk.

    as for wheels, buy what you like. volk, work, enkei, advan, bbs, buddy club, kosei, ssr, gram lights, regamaster, etc

    looks like the only co. that is making lowering springs for the 2007 toyota corolla is Tien

    the S-Techs and the H-Tech

    personally i'd stay away from the H-Techs simply because they are a progressive spring design

    as for wheels... what ever strikes your fancy

    to be honest woth you the toyota corolla was never desined to be modified and not to sound like a jack ass but i personally think to be modified in anyway it will be pretty ricer but that is my two cents.

    there is nothing wrong with tuning a newer style corolla. he has a corolla and he wants to make it better looking and more fun to drive, there is no reason to put down someone b/c they want to do what i mentioned.

    btw what bolt pattern is the car? i think its 5x100 i'll try to find wheels

    hey i wasnt trying to put anyone down just my two cents are that if performance was what he was after a different car might have been a better choice but, its not my car so he can do as he likes and hope it all comes out the way he wants it to

    Then again a honda civic was never meant to be a performance car in any way. That doesn't mean it cant be done thats for sure. It may not have the largest aftermarket selection but Im sure you can make a new corolla handle much better and be more nimble and speedy, whether or not it will ever be a race car. Good luck with it ;)

    exactly, even though my 93' camry that i had before my Civic Si was straight up family car, i still got an Eibach pro kit, custom made a CAI w/ a K&N filter, and threw on stickier tires. :)

    Please quit with the poor grammar and English...
    Along with the racist comment..

    Is there any aftermarket potential for an 05 Corolla? I've never really looked..
