About alternative discs and warranty… — logbook Toyota Corolla 2008
As everyone knows, in order not to fly off the warranty, you cannot independently make changes to the design of the car. The age-old controversial question: if you put wheels from another manufacturer on a car, which even fit all the original parameters (rim diameter and width, hub size and offset), will the car fly off the warranty? Until now, I thought that, of course, the guarantee would be covered with a copper basin. Yesterday it was impatient to call in the salon to the OD to wash the car. In anticipation of the order, walking around the salon, considering all sorts of accessories and prices (and biting prices!), I saw something that I didn’t believe at first. I look at the disks that can be bought in the OD salon and what I see: "Disks for the Corolla car: Catwild. Price: 3600 rubles. Production: China." I think, well, nifigase! It is a pity that the disk parameters were not indicated, but in theory they fit the original ones.
So it became interesting, is it still possible to install alternative disks in terms of OD rules regarding the guarantee, if they themselves offer to buy non-Toyota-made disks from them?
You can buy any manufacturer, as long as the size matches those prescribed in those exploitation. Well, for personal peace of mind and demonstration of a dedicated user of a warranty machine, go to the officials, otherwise you should find out whether they will remove the warranty or not. In "our" you melt to such moments approach loyally.
I think you can without problems. For example, if you put discs of a non-original size, no one will take off a car with a guarantee. If you come to a dealer with these wheels, for example, with a wheel bearing problem, then they may refer that the breakdown was due to the wheels, but in fact they will also have to prove it. Here's how the installation of disks, for example, can affect the malfunction of the radio? Certainly not how. So that's what they can do is get a maximum at the expense of the suspension guarantee and no more.
Another manager told me not everything that we sell you have the right to install)
"not everything we sell you have the right to install)"
Stunned! Country of paradoxes
Don't even ask them ... I immediately took others for the summer, they also soldered the rulers for the subwoofer to the regular head ... don't worry!
8 years ago it was tough. And even more so, custom-made wheels were generally space at a price

if you select according to the same parameters as your relatives (which is difficult to do, if only some kind of replica, and it is not as beautiful as non-original ones), then nothing will happen. Or you can do it easier. Buy what you like, approximately similar in parameters to your family, and go to MOT in the winter, when the factory ones will stand.
so at will and under the order it is possible to make.
the only question is, was it possible 8 years ago?
This is exactly how it was done :-) Although the discs fit the original in all respects.

and why look for them completely drilling 5 * 100))) they don’t ask unnecessary questions ... if you look through my magazine you will see that the front stabilizer bushings were changed for me under warranty ... it separately applies to different components ... for example, one electrician, another suspension, paintwork ... and so on ... although for a long time there were both wheels and a subwoofer and a lot of things
