Official YARIS Wheel & Tire Guide

[sickpuppy1]

What's the best tire size I should get? Picked up some 15x7 +27 all around. Going to have coilovers with a 1.5-2 finger fender gap
Probably 195/60-55 or 205/60-55 would be good with rub.

[dakytchen]

th@s a nice graph now i know... thanks

[Black Yaris]

Wow, one of my old post still going strong!

[CueBall]

16x7, ET37, 195/50/16 will be a good fit. ET37 is the lowest offset I would trecommend with 195's.

I just got some 15x6.5, ET37 wheels.. Want to put 205/55R15's on them.. Will this be ok? What about a 205/50R15?

Either tire will work well.

The 205/55/15 will have a more cushy sidewall, better ride, etc.

The 205/50/15 is closer to stock height, and will handle better.

Depends on what you're looking for.

[CueBall]

__________________________________________________ _______

Recommended offsets (ET) and tyre widths (mm):

ET35+ = 175-185
ET38-ET40 = 175-195
ET42-ET45 = 195-205
ET45+ = up to 215

Optional tyre sizes (diameter in inches):

*Commonly recommended replacement sizes

Fitment depends on wheel width, offset, and suspension mods.


185/60/15 = 23.7*
195/60/15 = 24.2*
195/55/15 = 23.4*
205/55/15 = 23.9*
195/50/15 = 22.7
205/50/15 = 23.1* (Most lowered applications)
215/50/15 = 23.5
225/50/15 = 23.9



^from first page of theread^
Maybe I'm reading this chart wrong, but wouldn't the 205/55/15 be closer to stock tire height than the 205/50/15? (23.9" high vs 23.1" high)
Thanks again! :biggrin:

[33OH]

Depends on which OEM size you go off of, I have always went off of the 175/65/14 tires that come on the base model - which is 23" tall.

At least on my speedometer (with my GPS and an iPhone app that tells speed) - this has always been more accurate than the larger 185/60/15 upgraded tire size that comes on the 15" package.

[CueBall]

Oh I see that now. I was going off the 185/60/15's which is what I have now.
One last one.. will the 215/50/15's rub with the ET37 offset?

[allyart]

i got my yokohama s drive 195/55 R15 at USD70 each, new condition. think it was a good price.

Hi guys =) first time to post ( I live in Sweden so my English may not bet perfect)
I will get my new yaris soon (1,33 Style 5d) and for the summer i thought i would buy some new rims most likely 17" (does 17" fit even if I lower the car with springs?)
And what´s the best tire option for 17" rims? Offset?

Grateful for help
//tommih

[DeathBeard]

Chinese tires are sketchy at best

[1.5]

17 will fit just watch width and offset. With springs you might get minor rubbing on turns but should be fine.

[phaznet]

I'm interested in some wheels on sale by one of the forum members.
Would 205/40 tires on 16x7 wheels work on yaris with tein s tech springs?

[FHT_Racing]

Just in case it hasn't been brought up before, the factory 15x5.5" steel wheels weigh in at 14.8lbs :)

My 15x7" WORK Emotion CR Kai's weigh in at 15.6lbs, so I'll be switching to Team Dynamics 15x7" which I hear weigh in at just over 13lbs...

Hello I have a 2010 5-door HB..and i'm looking for some pretty good wheels. Will I have any problem fitting 16" Speedline Chrono with +35 ET? The tyres will be 195/50 and the car isn't lowered rigth now..it will be, with H&R about 1,2''..no more than that. Can anyone help me please?

Thanks

Joao, how wide are the wheels? If they are 16x7's, you won't have any issues at all with that offset and tire size.

Thanks for the quick response 33OH.

Yes, they are 16x7''. Another doubt..my yaris is a diesel engine, a 1.4cc 90hp, will it run 17x7'' ET 40 with 205/45..or it will be to much ?

Thanks a lot!

[why?]

16x7 is probably pushing it weight wise, but at least you will have the torque of the diesel to help.

Hello, i hope there is someone who can help me,
i am trying to figure this out..

I have a:
Toyota Yaris Hybrid.
right now i am driving on 15" standard weels and 175/65/r15 tires...

I want to go to 16" MAK Iguan Matt White.
(195/50r16 tirers)

But i dont know about the ET and the others thing...

I dont now what my 15" are in ET.....

What i can read, this might be the right one for 16"?

16" x 6 mm x4x100 mm ET43 57 mm
(thats the MAK Iguan)

Would these work?

Regards
Peter

[yarisugi]

16x6" ET43.
pcd 4x100
It will work.

16x7" would be ideal.
But the MAK Website (http://www.makwheels.it/EMP000000073a.asp) says "not available". You may have to contact them first.

[Mikkelsen_7]

why would a wider rim, be better on a hybrid? ... then you got a bigger surface, that uses more BHP ?

[mario98c]

15x7" +30 offset 205/50/15 tires. Will it rub?

Likely to have minor rubbing there - it will be close and depend on your drop.

[1.5]

what do you mean help? I dont see a question?

Are you asking which of those two you should go with? That would be a personal preference. If you like the way 15s look go with that, if you like the way 16s look go with that. I would not go wider than 195 on a 7, not saying you CANT go wider, that is only my preference

Those tire sizes are too short. 50 series should be on 16s and 40 series should be on 17s.

Sorry to clarify...I would like to know what size tires would fit best on a lowered yaris considering the wheel specs I posted?

Those tire sizes are too short. 50 series should be on 16s and 40 series should be on 17s.
so you're saying 50 series on both?

[1.5]

I disagree with WeeYari, I have run 45/50 on 15s 40/45/55 on 16s without issue. The shorter the sidewall the lower you will be to the ground and give the harsher the ride. Thicker side walls are usually more cushy.

Its going to come down to your wheel preference. Find the wheel you want and then find a tire to match.

Think of what you want out of your new tire/wheel setup like weight, performance, looks, stance, handling, etc thats a good way to start

[WeeYari]

He's only dropping 1" so with a 195/50/15 or 205/40/16 it would almost be pointless if an objective is to reduce wheel gap.

This was me when I had 195/50/16s dropped 1.5". Wheel offset is +42 with 10mm spacers in the rear. Essentially +42 in the front, +32 in the rear.

He's saying 205/50/15 (or 195/55/15) on the 15", and 195/50/16 (or 205/45/16) on the 16".

hey guys
Just a old man with a stock daily driver.
But I needed new tires and I do sometimes push it a tad in corners.
I went with the advice that gets posted on here from those in the know.
And Im happier then a pig in....Well you know.
So thanks guys! :biggrin:

Precisely. If you go with lower profile sidewalls then invest in better shocks/struts. Your ride will be harsh. Theirs always a domino effect when you start changing your cars set up from stock specs. Been doing this for almost 33 years now, I see all kinds of messed up upgrades or set ups still.

[why?]

That is why I got coilovers and tires with a massive sidewall. I get sensational handling and tires with a gigantic sidewall to protect my wheels. Couple that with the stock seats and while I hear every bump I don't feel anything.

[KTS]

Hello everyone,
I have a question/concern.....
I put my OEM Vitz RS rims [16x6, ET51] with 205/50/16 on my wife 07 ncp92r 4 door sedan. The tire now rubs on the front shock and chassis with the steering at full lock. I installed a 5mm spacer and it still does the same. I observed that the sedan has a much, much smaller turning radius than my 07 Vitz RS. This combination was never a problem on my car. I am now using her 15x7 ET42 205/50/15 which gave no problems on either car.
Is it normal for the 16x6 ET51 with 205/50/16 to have fitment issues on the sedans????
What can be done to rectify the fitment issues without future problems????
Buying new wheel/tire combos for either car is not an option but if we have to switch back we will both be disappointed.
Any assistance will be appreciated.
Thank you.

1. Is this updated for 2015? My Yaris has 175/65HR15s.

2. Is it safe/a good idea to put on 185s or 195s for snow tires? It is sometimes difficult to find a 175s.

Also, Konig Feather Black, 13.8 pound rims, woo hoo....Getting the tires for 142 and change each with a 70 dollar rebate and got the feathers for 426 on discount tire direct....they have some smoking deals, as I was having trouble between the DR 41 and the DR 16 and DR 31, or the feathers. Had my eye on the feathers for some time now. sold the wife's camry rims, which help offset, the cost, sold them for 370, so it's like 50 some bucks for my rims I tell her....nice, cannot wait....

I know there's some very inclusive details on the first page with all the numbers, but I'm not too familiar with this stuff.. so, was wondering if I can get some help.

Good choice? Good price? Correct size?
Thank you for all your help!

how about 225/45/15x7 et40 with coilovers? will this need spacers?

[JimKellyfan]

Here are the pics from just after install.
To report, the tires do rub a bit (11 am position LF -- 1 pm position RF) up front when driving severely (40-50 mph around a sharp turn)...
A friend was saying I could have a body shop roll the fenders....
I was wantin to get high performance or heavier sprung springs.
Currently, I think coil overs are the only option, as I definitely not lowering it.
(an example, on old Caprice, I could put regular front or rear, or the ones I went with, cargo coils in rear - no HP available, and in front HP springs) Then, coil over shocks...
I was hopin someone made HP coils for us...anyone know of any, PM me pls.

Someone earlier asked about Michelin X-Ice (awesome and should fit no issues on a 14 inch rim)

Lol! If I ever get enough money together for a set of dedicated auto x tires I want to get my moneys worth. 15x7 rims and 225 tires are the fattest tires that are legal for stf class which is what I would plan on running. Go big or go home!

The easiest way to check is to go down there and try them. If they bolt upa and don't scrape the brakes or the fender/body you are good

[MJZ]

Anyone running 195/65R15 ET 38 ?
The one tire website that allows you to do a compareson between the 2 tires sizes reports that I should have no issues outside of the tires being 16mm larger overall, which with a stock suspension *SHOULD* be fine... anyone have any inputs or personal experience with this size? Got a 2008 2door HB.

Hey Guys !

I have a question about tire rubing on my toyota echo hatch 05

I have 205/45r17 rims. I bought those rims used and the owner didnt know the offset....
I am presently running them on stock suspension , I rarely rub in front when I am maxed out.

my question is if I install Tein S.tech springs will it rub ? the springs are 1.7 inch drop in front and back .

Thanks guys

[Ben_]

Look at the room you have in your fenders. If you have 3" clearance I'd say go for it. On a one off setup there is no "yes or no" since probably nobody has ran that tire size those rims those springs and whatever alignment you have. The only sure fire way to find out is to buy them and try it on. Other than that get out your measuring tape. You will need clearance for suspension travel

[brushforhire]

Figured I would post a link to my favorite tire size calculator. I use it all the time at work. It lets you compare the measurements of two given size tires. Really great tool. The wheel one that what posted in this thread is awesome also.

I didn't find an answer for my question...

What is the OEM size for the spare wheel on a 2008 Yaris 2dr hatchback with 15" factory steel wheels?
I bought the car for my wife but the spare wheel is missing.
I've asked the local Toyota dealership and they wanted to sell me a full size wheel and I told them, that won't fit in the trunk...
Then they sent me an email with these numbers: T125/70D15
I went to the local junk yard (I don't want to spend 180USD on the rim +155USD tire + tax) and find one for 20USD.
When my wife came home I tried the spare next to the full size wheel and it was much smaller! (The diameter). Is it normal? Or that car needs the T125/70D16?

Help me please! I am so confused...

[yarisugi]

T125/70D15 is correct.
Yes, it is smaller and looks even smaller when on the car. It is normal.
Hence the words on the spare "Temporary Use Only".
It's only meant to take you to the nearest town to fix your flat tire.

Depends on offset. You can go up to 8" wide with a +40 offset but most manufacturers don't make them in those sizes with a high offset.
First - what diameter do you desire? 15", 16", 17", 32"?

If its for 1-2 gen Yaris then I like the design, however the color isn't my taste. The more important question is, do you like it? In the end, that's all that matters. I think those have an old school quality to them which compliments the older Yaris look. Keep in mind it's only my opinion, and that I'm a 36 year old with five kids so my tastes are different.

I bought a set of tires that are 185/60R15. I now need a set of steel rims for it to be used during winter driving.

Can i get steel rims that are 15 inch by 6 inch. Also for ET, how low or high can i go? ET38 to ET40 correct?

https://www.wheel-size.com/size/toyota/yaris/2008/

The website above suggests i do 5.5 inch and ET46.. But ET46 on the list below is up at tire size 215.

On the set of tires i'm getting it says: "Wheel Width Min and Max 5 inch to 6.5 inch".

I understand all the aspects of the tire and rim sizing except for offset. How do i know if the offset is too high or too low for the car? Stock tires/rims is 46 offset.

205/50/15's are a little shorter but will fit the stock alloys fine.

Tyre Diameter: 175/65/15's are 24" (609mm) and 205/50/15's are 23.1" (587mm).

You could go with 205/55's @ 23.9" (607mm).

^^^ That's actually an excellent choice for tread pattern; non-aggressive for a quiet ride, and a solid, continuous centre band for straight-line tracking.

Please, let us all know how they work out for you.

i have yaris 2016 1.3 base sedan with stock tires 175/65R14 with steel rims. I am planning to change to 15inch/16inch alloys. Would 16inch be advisable?

initially i plan on 195/55R15 but if 16inch rims will not be an issue with my smaller engine then i will go for it.

What could be the potential problems i will face later on when upgrading to tires with 16inch rims?

[rayfloyd170]

very bad, i already changed to clone OEM Rims 15x5.5 and there is no available 195/55R15 in the shop.. They only have 195/60R15. The worst part i agreed to use it...

Feels sluggish and heavy to me, considering i am on 1.3L engine only. Also i need to put more pressure while braking. If only there is 195/55R15, i guess i need to wait for another 70k KM to change tires... I hope fuel consumption would not be affected that much since now i feel i am running faster with lower RPM.. its like i am ~5km/ faster than my stock 175/65R14

[rayfloyd170]

Sold my set of 195/60R15 for half the price after using them for 2500km and used 185/60R15 instead... I cannot believe the huge difference in handling especially on corners and theres no more slouch start from my small engine, powerful start is what i need.

195/55R15 could have been much better but i dont want to hit all the crazy humps here in KSA roads.

This thread was very handy.

Looking to get 16x6.5" wheels with an offset of +40. Not sure about what tyres though!

[kimona]

^^^ 16x6.5, ET40 is a great fitment with 205/50/16/'s on stock suspension or with a mild drop.

How about a set of Accent 16" x 6.5" alloys? They're cheap, readily available, same bolt pattern, same offset as the 15" RS alloys and the Toyota center caps snap right in.

Here's my car before my coilovers:

[spoonzz]

Damnnn, they do look good! If anything, I want to paint it black and that seems easy enough. I'm gonna have a look on eBay and see if they pop up. Thanks!

Edit: I found some nice 16"/7" wheels with two offset options, +35 and +40. Would either be a good fitment with 205/50/16 tyres?

[kimona]

ET40 would be a better fitment with 205 rubber.

[06032]

I see folks using Mini Cooper wheels. The 16"s I like have an offset +46-48. Is this in the realm of possibility and with what size tire for a flush look, with and without a TRD spring?

Another option I've found is a Sparco 16" wheel (from a Miata) with a 195/55/16 tire. Will it fit with or without the TRD springs?

[kimona]

^^^ 16" Mini wheels are generally 16x6.5, ET48. They will work very well with 205/50/16 rubber on stock suspension or with the modest TRD drop.

Thanks, Kimona!

As to the second question, many can be found with the 195/55 rubber. Will it work for the time being?

[06032]

Anyone know if Mini 16" wheels (ET48) with 205/50 tires and TRD springs/shocks can still accept H&R 10mm spacers in the rear and not rub? I'd like to push them out a tad for aesthetics and it 'appears' there's room.

With this setup, the fronts do rub just a bit at full turn. Any solution for this?

[spoonzz]

Hey all, I ended up finding super cheap stock 15x5.5" alloy wheels from the ZR model (i'm in Australia) which I painted black. Also I'm not sure what they ZR models are called in other places but basically the top model.

Now I'm not sure what tyre size to get. Someone suggested 185/55/15. Stock for these wheels are 175/65 but I'm not sure what to get. I just don't want anything to make the car feel sluggish.

Any suggestions?

[kimona]

^^^ In the US, OEM is 185/60/15.

[spoonzz]

Thanks, I may as well go with that then.

I ran 195s and 205s on the stock rims (alloys) without issue, though I didn't drive really hard in corners and such. No issues, but I suspect the 195s would be better than the 205s for autocross. I bet the 185s would be even better than the 195s.

[OzDriver]

Hi all

New member from Australia looking to purchase a 3dr hatch as a daily driver. Will be keen to apply a few basic handling/suspension mods. I'll want to lower it modestly, perhaps an inch or so. I've trawled the wheel threads for some great inspiration.

Looking at:

ROTA GRID 16x7 +40
ROTA SLIPSTREAM 16x7 +38

With modest (1-2") lowering and sensible/standard diameter rubber would I run into rubbing issues with either of these? I note the +40 would be closer to OE offset. Any advice much appreciated!

[stidnam]

Assuming you'll be using a 205 tyre. You shouldn't rub with either a +38 or +40

[OzDriver]

Assuming you'll be using a 205 tyre. You shouldn't rub with either a +38 or +40

Yup - looks like 205/45 would be the ideal on a 16x7

[stidnam]

At that size, 60kph would be showing as 58.3 on the speedo.

205/50 would read 60.3 on the speedo when doing 60kph.

[OzDriver]

Interesting thanks - that is better. I'd seen 205/45 mentioned often.

[stidnam]

Sorry, my bad before. For 205/45, when the speedo reads 60, you'll be doing 58.3. Apologies.

I run 205/45/16 on 16x7 wheels with no issue. offset is +42mm if I remember right. 1.5" drop.

I can't say with certainty, but your speedo will likely still over read even with 205/50 16. Every Toyota I've owned has over read. My Yaris running 195/50 16 reads 60kph when in fact my 20hz gps module hooked up to my phone reads 53-54. And it's nearly 10kph out when I hit 110 :).

I'm more than happy with the speedo reading a little on the safe side. At an indicated 110, my Forester is doing an actual 102 ish. I know that setting the cruise between 105/110 is safe as houses.

Hello, fellow members. I am not a wheels person and was wondering if a 15-inch 2001 Acura1.6el wheel with 4x100 will fit our 2007 Yaris. I heard the center bore for Acura is bigger, so, will that be a problem? I'm thinking it's a cheap upgrade to our Yaris' rusting steelies.

[kevinj93]

I think you would want to check how well the Acura wheels locate on the Yaris studs.

Yes, the Acura wheels appear to fit a larger hub. However, there are hub rings available to fit the larger bore size to the smaller hub. These are easily found on line.

This makes me wonder if there are different ring and pinion sizes for the speed sensor. Because I'm using the supposedly "STOCK" 185/60 R15 tire size, and I'm going 3.3% faster that what's indicated by my speedometer. Really annoying.

It coincides with what this calculator says:

http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp

Punch in 175/65 R14 for the first set and 185/60 R15 for the second set.

I run 175/65/R15(stock size) winter tires and 205/45/R16 tires for summer, my speedo is always 100% accurate, I even verified it with GPS.

Might be a 3rd gen thing, I dunno. I have never owned a 2nd gen

Did you mean 175/60/R15? Because 175/65/R15 has a much larger circumference that a 205/45/R16. I would agree 205/45/R16 because that's the close to 175/65/R14's circumference, which is what I believe my car is dialed to.

[white89gt]

I just thought that I'd post on here that the steel rims from a 2021 Nissan Versa fit rather well on my 07 Hatch. I bent a rim and found all four rims from a 2021 Versa for 115 dollars US shipped. The center hub on the Versa is a little larger, but it still works well.

I have a 2008 Toyota Yaris hatchback, and am looking to get 15x6.5 +35mm wheels and 185/60/R15 84H tires. The car is lowered on Tein lowering springs. There is still a little bit of wheel gap. I can measure the wheel gap if needed, or you can tell me another way to know how much it is lowered as I bought the car this way.

With this wheel and tire combination with +35mm offset should I expect to have rubbing issues?

Thanks for any replies.

Hello

I am looking at all season tires Yokohama YK-GTX

Stock aluminum rims 5.5x15.

stock tires
175/65R15 tread width 5.4 Diameter is 24.0 inches (I have the GTX and I am very pleased with it)
I am thinking what I want is:

195/60r15 wider by 1 inch @6.4, and is .3 inches taller nearly the same O.D. @24.3 inches

or

195/65r15 which is 6.1 inches width (.7 inches wider), 1 inch taller than stock @25 inches

I would prefer the tallness (ground clearance, I drive on dirt roads) of the tire. I am not sure if the taller tire will wreck the acceleration and or the milage.

Anybody have any experience with this?

I will lose 34 tire revs per mile with the 195/65r15 or ~3%.
Revs per mile 865 for 175/65r15 vs 831 revs per mile with the 195/65r15

Thoughts?
Thanks.

195 60's will make you VERY happy, that 1 inch makes a MASSIVE differance...the car will feel more connected to the road, the 65 is a tad tall and you will suffer on torque..which these cars allready suffer at.....i know when i was running my taller old snow tires i HATED it...205/60/15....fwiw i also tested 185s for a couple years and it too was a solid improvement but still felt like it was lacking...195/60s seem to be perfection

i belive my 195/60s are on a 5.5 as well, tho it might be a 6 but i know its not bigger..id have to pull them to verify and im not going to LOL

i have no experiance with the gtx's but i can tell you the verdistain quatrac5 are AMAZING and easily in the top 3 tires ive owned over 30 years
in what id call a 3way tie
bridgstone potenzas
killer in the summer good in the rain worthless in the snow best "muscle car" tire i know of

falken azenis
uber badass n the summer, suprisingly great in the wet, and even more strange finds stable traction on black ice and ice pack..not so good in the snow tho..my goto for anything "light" that wont see snow

verdistain quatrac5
flat out STICKY in the summer, breaking them loose is neerly impossible, in the wet they grab like a rain tire and its still VERY hard to break them loose even under hard g forces, in the snow and ice they are about as good as a blizak snow tire....somehow this tire just WORKS like it was made for the light weight of a yaris
these also grab in gravel and dirt like a rally tire!!!!!

i dont know how these will "wear" on a "heavy" car but i can tell you on the "lack of weight" that a yaris is..these tires blew my mind..and continue to do so

[Calrenman]

Thanks Short,
I am in a warranty so I am in the yokahama world :bonk:
the verdistain quatrac5 seem interesting. Same price point too.

If the 195/65 stresses the engine noticeably that would suck. Thanks for the heads up. The car is ok at acceleration and any less would not be pleasing.

I just put on a rear swaybar and it was worth every penny! Squishy tail no more, it firmed it up.

Thank you for sharing your experience.

The tread on my Yokohama tires is Identical to the tires you suggested.

[Calrenman]

I Purchased new set of Yokohama 195/60/15 YK-GTX tires. I have put a hundred or so miles on them. My milage may have dropped a tiny bit but the ride is tamer and the cornering is much stickier than the stock size tires! I am happy thus far. These are all season touring tires with wide sipes. Kinda reminds me of my old GT Goodyears on my 87 Camero!

[Dokoboodo]

What could be causing the 5% discrepancy between the speedometer and the GPS unit, especially considering the tire size difference and the acknowledged 3% discrepancy with the stock tires/wheels?

[Neinris]

Apparently there are two different types of drive gears for the speedometer. I bought the one with the part number 33403-19455, but I've yet to replace it because it's really hard to remove the sensor, especially with the limited space I'm working with. Eventually, if or when I swap the engine I'll also swap the speedo drive gear.

[Hepukelleri]

Hi!

My son is getting his licence soon and i bought his grandmoms Yaris to him. We plan on getting dome coilovers to it and nice rims. I have been thinking about 15-8" wheels with 25 offset. Has anybody put that kind of rims to a first gen Yaris? Do i need to roll fenders or get fender flares? I plan on getting it very low and tires could be 185/45R15.

[Canadian2009YarisRS]

Looking to upgrade wheels and tires from stock on my 2009 Yaris RS 4 door... I just bought it, and the springs seem to be slightly lower (or that could be the RS suspension, not sure), they're 'red'. The stock wheel (15x5.5 w/185/60R15) seem to leave a consistent gap all around the fender (not slammed looking, but not jacked up either) so I suspect the drop is very minor (possibly TRD springs)....

My question to you all is, I'm currently looking at a set of Konig Dial In wheels (15x7 +35) in white, and hoping to put on 205/50R15 rubber....

Will this fit? If so, should I expect any rub, or is this well within reach of a mildly lowered Yaris.... PLZ HELP!!!

[WeeYari]

Yes, you do have the TRD (Eibach) lowering springs which drop 1", probably more by now with aging. Those wheel/tire specs you provided will buzz the rear fenders on hard dips or carrying load of stuff and/or passengers. Better bet would be a 195 tire.

[Canadian2009YarisRS]

These are the side photos of my car so you can see the gap for reference... you mentioned going to 195's.... would it be best to go 195/55R15's I'm assuming... that would still be on 15x7 wheels?

Are there any other wheel size matched with tire size combos you'd recommend that would leave a uniform fender gap, but perhaps stance out the car better?

Thanks!

[WeeYari]

You have the much coveted OEM RS wheels. In the minds of many it would be a crime to get rid of those. Adding 10mm wheel spacers in the back would give you that stance you're looking for.

[Canadian2009YarisRS]

I was going to keep those 15's for winters... And slap on either a set of 15x7 or 16x7 depending on recommendations from the forum (possibly Regamasters)... Given that it has the TRD springs, is there any issues with clearance on either size of those wheels? Also, for either of those wheels, what tire sizes would you recommend?

Quoting myself here which is weird... but ended going with 15x7 silver "Regamasters" sandwiched between 195/55R15 rubber... I'll update pics soon when they arrive!

[Neinris]

I didn’t know I had a flat until people were pointing at my rear passenger tire. I pulled over and put the spare, but the rear disc conversion prevented the fitment. I was going to swap with the front wheel, but I have a bigger brake conversion from a Yaris SE. I ended up driving on a flat tire until I got home.

My best friend gave these DR21 15X7 E.T. 40 with 195/55 tires. They look nicer, but the spokes hits the caliper front and rear even with 5mm spacers.

I’d have to take some materials off to make them work.

LOL! Are yours 16s? These 15s didn't fit directly without having to use 5mm spacers and grinding the front caliper (SE size front rotor) and rear caliper bracket (rear disc brake conversion).
