Rally Sport Turbomac in Asphalt Black Meets Toyota’s GR Corolla—A Rally‑Bred, Road‑Ready Union

When Johnny Lieberman rolled his 2024 GR Corolla Circuit Edition onto Jay Leno’s Garage, the pocket‑rocket Toyota already boasted rally pedigree: 300 hp from a turbo triple, a carbon‑fiber roof, and an all‑wheel‑drive system you can dial from 60/40 to 30/70 on the fly. But the pièce de résistance? fifteen52’s Rally Sport Turbomac in Asphalt Black—wheels bred for World RX gravel, perfected for the street.

Swapping out the stock alloys for these Ken‑Block‑inspired rollers isn’t just a style flex (though that matte‑black, vented face pops against the Circuit Edition’s one‑year‑only blue). Rally Sport Turbomac wheels are cast from A356‑T6 aluminum and designed to shrug off potholes, washboard rally stages, and the occasional canyon apex while trimming unsprung weight. That diet lets the Corolla’s ECUtek‑tuned 350‑ish horsepower reach the pavement with less rotational inertia, turning Toyo Proxes sneakers into razor‑sharp scalpels.

Clearance is king: those broad barrels swallow Lieberman’s upgraded rotors, braided lines, and track‑grade fluid, banishing long‑pedal fade. Hammer the middle pedal at the corkscrew, and the Corolla stays composed—no squish, no drama. Meanwhile, the wheel’s rally‑bred vents direct cooling air to the brakes, keeping lap‑after‑lap temps in check.
