Yeah they will fit but might sit inside the guards a bit. I have 42p's on my AW11 and they fit fine but 35p's look better.

google for wheel offset calculator and it will give you an idea how much closer in or further out it will sit.

As I said in your other post, +40 is marginal on an AE92 Trueno. I would say +42 will touch the rear strut.

Also as I said before, go to a wheel shop and look at some fitment brochures...they are free its not like they will force you to buy something.

If the wheels are the same width then just take the difference and you have it there in mm. So a 40p will be closer to the strut by 5mm compared to a 35p. Gets confusing when you talk different widths but still isn't that hard to work out.

yeah i used it to check for a set of 45p rims on my ae101 but it going to be too close at the back and most likely rub.

i think 4x100 45p is more for some hondas, civics maybe?

Generally the Corolla range uses a +35 to +38mm offset.

I couldn't tell you whether or not they'll foul the rear strut but I believe that the tyres are the wrong profile. 45's or at a pinch 50's would be better.
