    so this doesn't mention corolla https://www.toyota.com/usa/operations/map.html#!/tmmal

    is the 4cyl in the camry/rav4 the same one?

    edit: have they stopped making the corolla? why would the toyota-mazda plant report it would make corolla? I'm confused.

    welcome to the thread!

    top brands discussed/used in our thread seem to be SCS, Method, or Level 8s.

    Thanks guys, I'll keep looking. Setting aside a truck fund for wheels and a basic lift to start. How much do you think would be a good start?

    well I'm not sure on wheels but I assume that you can get a decent set for ~$500-$600 ish and I would say the bare minimum for a decent lift is gonna be bilstein 5100's which will set you back ~$300 for all 4 corners for the shocks (you can use the factory coils, as I did, for the front, but most would also recommend putting new coils on which is another ~$175) and then you could get an aal for the rear but that is also, from what I have seen, not really recommended. so depending on how much lift you wanted in the rear, you might could do a block if it was 1" or less, or a new leaf pack. and then obviously the price range is so great depending on what color springs and shocks you want.
