i was looking on ebay and came across these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=230326670595

im really interested in getting these but i was thinking that a 37 offset would be too low? does anyone have any more info into weather this would fit? im running on tein basics atm

Depends on a few things. How low you want to go, and what kind of look or tire you want to run.

Worst case scenario just measure up the car and see what fits.

im not wanting to go soo low as to have the wheels tucked, but so the gap between the wheel and fender is even, im pretty sure the rears would be ok but i was worried at the fronts would poke out. as as for tyres, im looking to run the same as the ones posed in the auction

Fair enough question, mate.

You will poke out a tad up front, which first of all looks bad, and second, poses a problem with some rubbing with 205mm tyres on your lowered car.

Those wheels are especially nice. If you really like them, buy them and see how they work out. You can always remove the tyres, sell them, and replace with 195/45/17 Yokohama S-Drives.

first question we need to know is what year is your Yaris..... 05 and older can run crazy low offsets like my scion.... if it is 06 or newer, it is more picky on offsets

I saw a black LB yesterday with rims like that, it looked pretty sweet! I wish I had taken a pic...

Good luck with the wheels, post a picture once you get them on!

Cheers! M2

The BBS should not be tough to sell even if it does not fit. Play with the fenders and alignment a bit if it seems to poke right at first. Alignment is key.
