Sorry only one picture right now. I have only 2 rims put on will have to put the other two on tomorrow morning hopefully. Ill get some better shots in the morning once there on and polished up.

Its amazing the difference lightweight rims make. Corners better, steering wheel is easier to turn. Vehicle accelerates faster, braking distance is shorter. Going over bumps isnt as harsh. Best investment ive made on my car so far.

Okay sorry for the teaser pic heres some real pics now. Let me know what you guys think honestly. Also debating about painting the center cap black. Amazing how something like rims can totally change the look of a vehicle.

16

Nope they are actually 15s. I went with the long spoke design so they dont look so puny and look more like 16s. I had a set of 17s on my other car with a large lip with smaller spokes in the center and people kept thinking i had 15s.

I wanted 16s but i had just recently bought some tires and i mounted to my stock wheels. Didnt want the money to go to waste and no one wanted to buy them so i figured just get some lightweight 15s and then can use the performance tires. So in all a really lightweight package that still looks good.

Great choice of wheels! :thumbsup:
IMHO 15s are perfect for the Yaris. Nice, cheap, and lightweight.
Those really look like 16s though...

Ill take that as a compliment hehe. They really are 15s. Im really pleased with how they look on my car. I think black is a perfect match for the flint mica. Goes well with the tinted windows.

Those look great for 15's. Please don't paint the center caps though.

Looks magnificent! I was debating getting those exact wheels, and I am not debating anymore. Beautiful.

I say paint them red or orange so they match either your reflectors or tail lights. .02

Well my plan was to first paint the front portion white. Then get a vinyl overlay that says yaris or toyota and stick it on the side of the caliper. Then paint the entire thing black. And then peel off the stickers when they dry. So it will have the lettering in white.

15" rims is the way to GO!!!!!!! :headbang: Black rims always look good in most of the chassis colour!!:wub:

I agree! Hehe. Only downfall is if you have larger spokes it almost looks like your running steelies when your driving.
