Toyota - Toyota Corolla
Toyota needed a smaller car to capitalise on the demand for a small fuel efficient car, and the Toyota Corolla was the result, introduced in late 1966. Updated in 1970, the Corolla was followed by the third generation in 1974 which now also offered a hatch back body in the range.
Tyre sizes for the Toyota Corolla 1100,1200SL and 1200 Coupe were factory listed with the 155R13 tyre, fitted to 4J wheel rims. The wider tyre alternative (i.e. same diameter but wider) is the 175/70R13 size which was used on the 110hp Corolla. For the Corolla 1600 the tyre size was 165R13, with the wider 185/70R13 a popular size post 1980, although the 185/70R13 size was in any case listed for some of the American series cars as an option from the early 1970's.
Blockley produces all four of these Toyota Corolla tyre sizes with a period correct, excellent speed rated, steel belt construction tyres - see full details of these tyres at the links below:
