Someone in my local car club is selling some enkei's
Size: 17x7
Offset: 42mm
Backspacing: 5.59"
Bolt Pattern: 4-100
Curious if they would fit, tried looking at the guide but couldn't figure it out.
All that I have done to the car suspension is MI lowering springs and cut a notch off the bump stops. Too wide?

At this point, the tires themselves would be the biggest issue. I just got a set of 15x7 ET45 wheels with 205/50R15 tires and they look like they should rub, but somehow don't. Keep in mind that OEM tires are about 24" in diameter, so you're looking at some pretty thin rubber if you don't want to roll your fenders.
I'm also running Tokico blues with OEM bump stops and Tien s-techs, which is about the lowest drop you can do without coilovers. I'm sure someone here runs wheels that size, you just need to find them. Try playing with the search?

17 x 7, ET42 is an excellent fit for the Yaris. Try 205/40 or 205/45 tyres depending on your drop.

That's a great wheel fitment. +1 on the other comments.

The Enkei's I had were those exact specs, and I used 205/40/17 tires.

Lowered on Tein S.Tech springs, I experienced no problems with them. However, on full steering wheel lock to the left, I think it very slightly rubbed on the inner fender. No biggie tho.

Thanks for all the feedback! I might jump on the deal. Nice setup for a little show, eventually will have koseis or rpf1s in 15 for my auto cross endeavors and have car setup in STF a little better.
