Yup. Classic Panasport design. I think they'll look outstanding in 15's or 16's.

15s will over alot more tire selection if your looking to go with performance tires.

Nope, I dont either. But it depends on how people see things...

I'm not a fan of the chrome lip thing...maybe thats whats killing it for me~

Go w/ 16s, if you are tracking, go with 15s. Just pure style, go w/ 17s like the people in Japan.

Dang this post is back from the dead.


After seeing saggio and brazdons cars on xxrs I kinda forgot about the rotas. The lip on the xxr adds so much in my opinion.

I STILL haven't got any wheels at all though. All the money I had saved for them had to be spent on a new bumper and paint :(

oh well, start savin again....

16's are a good size. tires are cheap, maintenance is easy, and just about any rinky dink tire shop can put them on since they're not 'low profile' tires.

you'll get a good balance of performance and ride quality....not losing too much quality and gaining a lot of performance. with 17's the car tends to get very rigid since the sidewalls dont flex and suspension takes all the bumps in.

You know... I think the mini cooper wheels would look really nice on the yaris.. hehe. or maybe not.
