Im looking to buy some new wheels but not necessarily lower my 07 yaris sedan.
What are ya'lls best suggestions for tires in terms of size and look?

Links appreciated. :)

p.s. Ive got a black yaris but am trying to go with a blue accent in my shifters and stereo equipment so anyone with nice wheels with blue accents be sure to post.

the Stock wheel and tire for a Yaris Sedan(at least on mine ) is
15x5.5, ET45, 185/60/15 = 23.7
15x5.5 = The Size of the Rim 15" and width of the rim 5.5

Et45 is the off set where the Mounting Pad( to what the lug tighten to) is located in the rim
185/60/15 = tire width 185, dimension from the edge of the rim to the outside of the tire 60, 15 Again Rim size
23.7 = Overall height of the tire


Play Around with the wheel and tire calculator so you can understand it all better

i wanna see Konig Again4's on a yaris!!

http://www.discounttiredirect.com/product/wheels/konag4.o.ang.jpg

15X6.5 +40 (perfect fit on a yaris)

205 55 15 would look pretty good IMO

btw, OP, use www.tirerack.com and www.discounttiredirect.com

they have "view these wheels on my yaris" feature

thank god! (just messin man)

you could always buy a nice simple wheel and add your blue accents yourself (i.e. a vinyl pinstripe on the edge of the wheel in blue)

Quickest way to add blue detail to any wheel is blue lugs. Another easy way is to add simple blue detail to the centre cap.
