found some wheels...

i have been looking for 15" wheels for awhile and i really can't see myself paying over $500 buck for 15" packages, so i bought my brothers '03 Civic SI wheels.

i paid $125 plus a 10" sub/amp that i had sitting for awhile(not gonna used).
this is what they look like. they have 195/55/15 tires and i'm probably gonna go with 205/50/15 because i like when the tire sticks out a bit from the wheel.

anyways i'm picking them up tomorrow, so i'll try to post pics asap.

All I say is just remember to pry off the Honda symbol to save yourself the grief... buy some Toyota symbols and do the swap,

Nothing worse than seeing a nice MR2 sitting on Civic rims.

Hey Joey,

Since seeing your car with those Mini wheels, I looked into getting hubcentric rings. Anyway, hubcentric rings can be custom made for OEM wheels to permit other applications.

Probably best not to rely on a lugcentric application, you can get custom hubcentric rings made here:

customerservice@eurosportgarage.com

Just a suggestion. Have fun with your Yaris!

Is the Totyota 4x100 hub size still 54.1 mm? It's small, but hubcentric rings with this ID should be available somewhere...

Yah, I did the same, and I finally came up with these guys at eurosport garage. BTW, they quoted me $50 shipped. Well, not cheap, but they will be a custom job and you won't have to eworry about vibration at speed.

And, no, I didn't get the Mini wheels. This guy near me has them sitting in his garage and he only wants $100. And while I do like the look, I'm actually leaning in another direction for wheels... 15's or 16's.

While hubcentric rings are widely available to fit aftermarket wheels with those huge center holes, OEM to OEM rings have to be custom made.
