I have a 08 Corolla S manual trans..

I want to dump the aftermarket 17' boat anchors that are on it and run a lightweight 15" wheel and a low rolling resistance style tire combo (195-65-15)

Any consensus for what brand seems to work well for others?

I'm also hunting for some inexpensive 15" 5x100 wheels,
not sure where to start..
A friend mentioned that Rota Slipstreams were fairly inexpensive and lightweight. Anyone running these?

Thanks
