17's........if you have a liftback 17's would look good.

as far as color, I am not a personal fan of chrome so maybe im bias when i think black would look awesome on a dropped red LB. The chrome is just too much for these little cars IMO. get some trd springs, your choice of black rim on 205/40/17's with those tinted windows and you would be good to go.

I think polished looks nice or black but chrome is plain fugly. Black is easy to keep looking clean. I say go flat black 17":biggrin:

OKIK...
18X7 max 18x7.5 but i prefer 18x7 so u will not be in truble later
about colors .. black with chrom lip is nice only in 20+ inch rims.. even 20 they look bad black rims only on huge rims will be nice other than that i dont think so.....
chrom is the best but u have to take a cool ones.. not sport and chrom in the same time.. as u r a girl take the luxury look..
but tell me if u have a body kit or no.. coz chrom rims with sport body kit will look ugly.. post ur car pic plz.. ... then we will check >> hehe

if ur car still stock..and u need a good look ..
- chorm rims with lowering for sure
- Do Not put chrom on a sport body kit >> i prefer with out bodykit will be good
- zenon light kit for the light >> if u want for the fog light also..
thats it from out
from inside its up to u .... coz i think inside is somthing personal
- trust me chrom with lowering + zenon >> u will love that look..

Yes, white on red is nice. I almost went that route but fell in love with the gunmetal gray.

Black or white 17s. Don't do Chrome. Chrome is for 24 inch rims on Impalas.

you know what, people will always have different opinions on what wheel colour and what kind of wheels to put on a yaris.

Its your choice and at the end it should make u happy and not everyone else, cuz its ur car and ur mods. If they dont like it thats their prob. Gettin everyones opinion will just make ur choice even harder.

Now i said that, heres my opinion................

IMO, Black wheels... The smaller the better (15 would be my choice) So I'd say 17s if that was the only options. But hey! It's your car.

Pretty sure I'm going to get those for my silver yaris. I wasn't sure at first but I shopped them on and despite the crappy job, they looked pretty good. Just waiting on the quote of another set of wheels I was looking at before making the final decision.

after reading everyone else's opinion i decided to go with my own. haha. i ordered 17" Sacchi - S.25/225 in BLACK! it will look tight as the front grill of my car is black. red car, black tinted windows, black grill.

i do not have a kit nor is my car lowered. baby steps.

the wheels are already in the shop but the tires won't be there until thursday. i'll have pics up by this weekend.

and whomever suggested Barbie wheels.......uh, ew.

what is the offset on those wheels? What do you plan on running for a tire?

black or polished silver, not white, please, that would be a clown car.

Sacchi 25's are nice rims. Mesh-look, 40mm offset (I think), a machined lip, and silver center cap. Is that the wheel?

Are they dual or single drilled? What colour lugs do you plan?

How about tires... what size? Are you lowered?

Well, post pics and your specs.

Very exciting for you... isn't it?

Black on red. Chrome just looks way too flashy for my taste.
