Guys, thinking of ordering these for the Yaris:

Problem is, Tire Rack says two offsets fit, both +42 and +38. Which ones should I order? I plan on getting 215s put on them and the car will be lowered slightly. Thanks.

The difference is a few millimeters. The +42 wheel will sit slightly farther inside the wheel well compared to the +38 wheel. I would go with +42 to be safe.
20lbs. is heavy wheel, but seems to be the going weight for cast 17" wheels.

I had a set of 16" ASA AR1's on my car with 45's up front and 38's in the rear.

If you don't want to stagger offsets, I would definitely go with 42's.

These are my first option, not sure I want to spend this much though:
