Sorry to disappoint you JOhnny, but I sold my DF's and I am putting the NF kit on Tomorrow bright and early. I am still going to try and run the 215's although everyone is telling me 205. I am going to explore evey option with the 215's before I sell them. I have the stocks ready to go back on if there is trouble with the 215's. Pics will go up ASAP.

I don't understand why you absolutely want to use 215 tires. Wider tires mean more friction to the road, mean less performance, mean less gas milleage, mean more chance to rub somewhere. As you can see, there's only cons and no pros my friend...

Wider tires also mean better handling on corners. I can fully lock out the steering wheel on U turns with no rubbing, and I thought weight was always the issue with wider tires and bigger wheels. my wheels and the stocks weigh almost the same. The overall height diameter and circumference is closer to stock then the 205, and the main reason I am hell bent on using them is the fact that I bought the wheels and tires off a friend and they are like $500 Toyo Proxy 4 tires. I will switch to the 205 if I need to, but I would rather not spend the money unless I had to. I am not a cheap ass or anything. Every custom wheel and tire shop I have went to here in Indiana and Kentucky tell me they will work. Now if I was putting 40 lb. 18's or 20's on there I would definitly kick myself in the ass performance wise, but 10mm isnt enough to cry about. I value everyones opinion on here , but in someway I just wanna post 215's will work because I know some people are debating on 215's.

Yeah, I have the same stereo as SRoberts. So installing a single din aftermarket, we would probably need the non-S piece.

In Canada, there's only one type of dash for 3dr hatch, 5dr hatch and 4dr sedan. It was like Sergio's dash, but all models have tachometer.

The difference is the stereo . I have the same setup as in Sergios pictures. It may be that yours is the "upgraded" trim. I know the stereo is different in the two. I do not have the power package in mine, only the convenience package. That may be the difference as well.

Thanks for the great info guys. I have one more question tho. Is the harness the same for both types of radios? Can I put a stereo like Sergios on my sedan?

As I read on some audio stuff site, wiring harness are all the same in all Toyota's from 1987 to now... LOL

Except high-end models as well (Avalon, ect).

@slvryaris: throw the NF's on, and you just might be suprised :)

@Sroberts: already posted about the trim in your other thread http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1370, and yes, it is the same harness on all of the available radios

Thanks Johnny... how much does a stock radio cost? Probably be better off buying an aftermarket unit unless someone has a stock radio for cheap.

Is that a good suprise or a bad suprise??? Well I put tehm on today and we have good news. I weigh over 300 lbs. and just went on a 200 mile road trip to see the old lady and there was no rubbing at all even hitting big dips and bumps on the interstate and Johnny I know U can vouch for me on this when I say some of these interstates in the U.S. suck and didnt have any rubbing. I can still fully lock out the steering wheel on u-turns and have no rubbing at all. Here is an after pic.

@slvryaris: looks real nice, good thing you didnt do the DF's :) but those rims look so nice, and tires look to fit perfectly, nice work ;)

@sroberts: you dont need to buy the stock radio, just the trim piece, it was $67 when i got mine, the stock radio is pretty much the same as the integrated one, so just buy the trim piece when you are going to put in an aftermarket head unit :)

Something that is really weird, but the front sticks out alot further then the rear. Like the back looks like it is in the fenderwell like 2 inches more then the front so watch out when buying rims and tires because the rear goes into the fenderwell more and tucks. I had the ass end weighted down with about 1000 lbs total in the car before I lowered it and it barely rubbed on the side wall with the 215's so I would have probably been fine with 205's, but now the suspension is tighter. It feels alot tighter then 5% and looks like it drops more then 1.2 in the front. Even though it didnt rub with just me I am afraid to let anyone else ride. Getting the 205's is still in my head though. It will buy me some height and wheel well space, but for someone who is ot even close to 320lbs. like me then they will have no problems.


I was wondering about the radio being integrated...So all U have to do is buy the trim piece and it has all the airbag seatbelt bologna then get the kit for an aftermarket harness and dash kit?
