Now It seems to be the popular wheel when doing track for our yaris. Does it require a minimum offset or any 13 wheel will fit on there?
And can sum1 link me a set of 13" that i can buy that are not steelies???

I run 13x7.5 Lenso's with a 25mm offset and they fit great on my Echo.
225/45/13 tires and no rubbing ever.
Plus they're SUPER light :)

echo i know they fit but yaris? Echo in 2000 came with 13".
I know an old track trick was to run really small rims (and tires) to basically change your gear ratio. I had a truck with 28.5" tires (outer diameter) I was contemplating going from 3.55s to 4.10s. I was told to put on some 25" tires and it would achieve the same thing. basically i could keep that set for the track and have my regular set so I didn't have to deal with killing my mileage. I ended up just going with the 4.10s. that truck was a rocket ship.
if it is purely on aesthetics, I can't really comment.

I run V2 13x8 with 225 tires for road racing, and Compomotive 13x9 with 255 tires for autocross. No issues with clearance, and the car is LOW. :smile:

It really isn't, the guy I got them from had the same rubber on 13x8.5's and they were almost showing a stretch. Tons of poke past the fenders though lol.
