The wheel looks great, especially for a DIY job. 205/45R16 tires will be too small. Go with a 205/50R16- your speedo will be closer to correct.
that red line r taken from mercedes ART design.
my openian they r not cool..
these tybe of rims needs to be big and low profile tire to give that good look..
at the end its ur car and u r the 1 who will drive it..
just openian

I almost bought those red lines advertised here in the classifieds recently. I think they would look great on a red liftback.
However i decided on a different look....

They look great and they will look great on a red yaris. Burn up those tires you have and then upgrade. My opinion. Not all cars need 18's. I think anything on the yaris hatch larger than 17's looks silly. This wheel will look better in my opinion in reserved sizes. That's just me. Of course, that guy might not think you are cool if he sees you.

Is the red line on your wheel tape, or paint?

You might want to check out this thread. It will give some ideas on how many of the different sizes of tires and rims look.

Looks great! Is that powdercoat or spray? I tried spraying some wheels silver one time, and it didn't work out... the paint was too soft, and any little thing marred them. Love the pinstripe!
I have an sick obsession with reflective pinstripes, like the ones on my Vibe. Maybe tacky, but I still like them, and I'd probably do it to wheels also!
