14 inch widen steelies with 40mm drop?

Hi Guys and Girls

I live in Cape Town, South Africa and my 2006 Yaris came out with standard 14 inch steelies. I found someone that can widen my steelies for an affordable price and I'm planning to drop the Yaris with 40mm springs.

I wanted to find out your opinions if its worth it? Will I need to flare my fenders to accommodate the wider steelies if I'm dropping my car?

Thanks in advance.

Do it! Youll need completely custom fenders. A hammer and anvil should do the trick.

I thought you meant that you were going to widen the steelies up to 14" wide lol that would just be insane

A lot of it depends on how much you widen them by and what the offset/backspacing would be.

Hope you do it; I'd love to see the look!
