Most likely 54.1 to 72, they are the most common for Toyota with aftermarket wheels. Look on TireRack or Discount Tire, they will help you out.

hub centric wheel are either given or sold with the wheels by the manifacture of the wheels..... discount tire has an "install package" that you can buy that has everything you need... most wheels you are not going to need hub centrics on the yaris, unless you get shit as wheels... even my knock-offs, of a knock-off do not need hub centrics.... you would have to have about $10 a piece wheels hand crafted by a blind man to need hub centric

I used to think the same thing until I got some. Big difference, it fills the space between the wheel & the hub, so that the wheel doesn't move around, because no matter how hard you tighten them, they WILL move.

I used to use hub centrics, untill I relized you don't need them on a quality wheel.... I have owned MANY sets of wheels in my time, and have sold god knows how many with and with out hub centrics.... they just make it a little easier putting the lug nut on, that is all... no other advantage

I wouldn't rely on a lugcentric application; use hubcentric rings.

you will find complete line of Exel models at wheelmax.com,
but be aware that many complaints made due to the quality of Exel wheels.
they tend to break apart in pieces with no contact or accident at all.
i've seen the pictures and read stories about this in Nissan forum.

but I still like Exel designs though..they all look very nice.

I paid over a grand for my wheels and they came with hub centrics...
