Anyone seen a Yaris all rally'd out? Fog lights? Brush guard? Most importantly, off-road tires?

Pics would be awesome!

They look really good as Netz Cup racers as well. I keep meaning to post some pics that I found.

After the S/C install, I'm going to try a lift of sorts. Maybe a pushbar and some PIAAs too. Not looking to rally but like the look. Should help with the crappy roads in STL too.

If I recall right, there's some markets that had a Yaris AWD. I would LOVE to get my hands on one.

Toyota should sell the Yaris AWD here. It would be a close competitor for the Suzuki Sx4 AWD hatch.

I've kicked around the idea of getting a Suzuki Sx4 AWD but the snow has been minimal here in Michigan, especially last winter. I could have survived it driving an Mr2 with all season tires, let's put it that way.

Only Japan gets the AWD version.

Based on 3 years of plowing snow with Crashy, I really don't think that AWD is necessary. Between the ATV tires and my 4" homemade lift kit, for ground clearance, I have never had a need for AWD, even when plowing 39 inches of snow after the blizzard two Winters ago.

it'd definitely be unique around here.

Still have one of the Yaris's left. The caged one is broke. She went bye bye on a rollover. So it's just the one with the half cage that I use for Rally x and Recce.

Still a fun car and great for Winter TSD's.

Gravel tires. These are Hard Compound. You can get gravel tires in soft, med and hard compounds depending on the surface you're driving in.

It's pretty straight forward. It can be made of aluminum or steel and I drilled two holes into the bumper behind the plastic bumper cover and welded a nut on the other end. To install it is quick. Two bolts go through the light bar and screw into the bumper.
Tighten it down and it's on.
Clip on the wires and you're running.

And this is the fun stick which I use instead of a brake bias adjuster. The shifter box (thing in white) is now elevated up 2 inches.
