This can change your scrub radius and the track of your car altering its handling characteristics... You may or may not notice the difference.

Scrub radius can affect things like the wheel's self straightening effect (similar to castor), and also tyre wear...

Track can do things to your weight transfer among other things... The minor change of the wheel offset probably wont affect your corolla.

I'm no expert though, maybe some people have had wheel offset adversly affect their handling, or maybe some have changed it to help? It would be interesting to know if many here have Smile
