New Old Wheels!

Well 2 weeks ago I had a rim idea. I found the rims off of another model of car I wanted. I seen the rims on a car in the dealership when I bought my Yaris. And I went to a fourm and purchased them from them. They are original toyota rims 205/50/15 tires. I do not want to lower my car because I had a lowered Neon and it was too rough. Even though the fender gaps are large I still wont lower the car. Anyways here is the pics.

I think you have a little bit of wheel well showing... try this size 225-50-15 it will keep the same over all diameter of your stocks... here is what it looks like on my car

but I went with the 15" 7-spoke Toyota rims from toyotapartstore. BTW, You're gonna have a problem with those 50 series tires on those rims. about the time you run up 10,000 miles, your odometer is gonna read 13000.

needless to say, your warranty will end prematurely.
