Before and After.

Too early to give a review on the tires but, I think the Corolla now looks like a 7/8th scale first-g ?en IS sedan.
Correction: the 2013 Corolla is longer than the first-gen IS. 

I definitely will go ahead with installing the TRD lowering springs.

I'm confused ( doesn't take much  ;D) did the car originally come with 2 sets of rims? Did you run winter tires ? I assume yes ,Manitoba.

I hope you won't regret a rougher ride with the TRD springs.

The car came with the 16" wheels pictured.  I use those for winter tires now.  My parents had used 15" alloy aftermarket wheels for winter tires since new, but I sold those last fall.

I'm ready for the rough ride of the TRD springs.  Eibach also sells a set of springs for the Corolla; I'm looking into those as well.
