Yes. 16" wheels with proper offset and proper tyre size will just "plop" on your Yaris like a 15".

EDIT: I wouldn't recommend wheelfire.com. Pricing is not very good, and they are clueless about proper wheel offset and tyre size for the Yaris.

Was thinking of just going to Canadian tire, buying 4 white 16 inch steelies, putting them on with 16 inch rubbers and boom. The end.

Would it be possible to do this as easy as I imagine?

not bad, i gonna pop over to my local canadian tire and see what i can get, 450 CND i can afford for a safer drive in the winter, and once i slam them on we will be ready to zip around again only without the boom :P

whats the clearance between the tires and the car body?

Most likely not, since they're 14's. What's the offset and width?

14's? i thought he said he was getting 16's? tires look gud and rims dont look like they would collect too much snow. width is a big factor and the space around the tire (between body and tire) for snow to escape and not clog up. the 16's should give u a little more ground clearance too

He said he was going to buy 16" steelies from Canadian tire. But he went with 14" wheels from Craigslist.

14 inches sir, side by side they were the same size as the 15 stocks I had, just these have more rubber.
