don't think that is going to fit very well Arkhangel, if you are lowered

is it possible to run these on the rears of my yaris since im not turning on the rears? im on a 1.5 inch drop..
my buddy has a spare set of 255/40/17 laying around in his garage..my wheels are 17x7 offset +42..i was thinking 255/40/17 on the two rears and 205/40/17 on the fronts..I wanna give it the muscle drag car look

if you have ABS i don't recommend running different tire diameters on different ends of the car.

and the rear will take some massaging to make a 255 fit. you'll HAVE to add camber shims. the rear has less clearance than the front (Russeltehpirate, chime in here please)

thanks for your help man

yeah..no abs..i have the base model
the camber shims issue is a good point..ill probably be ruining the suspension geometry in the long run..i notice running camber kits/shims is pretty common with the wide wheel slammed vw golf guys..but if the can do it why can"t we?

should i stick to my 205/40's for now?..those A032R's are so damn tempting..


btw those tires look awesome..do you have a side view of the car?..

give it a couple months, the tire WILL touch the fender, because those DF's love to sag pretty quickly IMO
