13 - 14" wheel upgrade Tue, 29 April 2003 23:41 Go to next message
O.K,
I want to go up a rim size on the KE70, and am wondering if the 14" alloys from an '81 Corona XX (the ones which are visually identical to the 13" alloys on my XX - those in the know will know what I'm talking about) will bolt on to my hubs.

The idea being that, if they do, I can go up in size, while dropping profile to retain the same rolling diameter, and they wont look too different from stock.

Also, if they WILL fit, does anyone know of someone who may have a set of these 14s lying around?

Regards,

Yup, they will fit no worries. Are these the same wheels that were fitted to some Tarago vans? If so you can pick them up cheap at a commercial/4WD wrecker.

The ones I'm referring to are the model before...the "old shape" Corona which carried over from the 70's (With the double square headlights).

These are pretty thin on the ground, AFAIK.

Yes I know the ones you are talking about, I've got a set of them on my KE55 Corolla and they fit just fine.

I've got a spare set of them, as well as a set of the identical 13" ones off the XX Corolla. Let me know if you're interested.
