I also had rubbing problems when I went 17X7 ET43 with 205/45R17 tires in my Yaris. I wasn't sure where exactly the rear tires were rubbing but when I got the 10mm Penguin Garage hub spacers, along with a 1' rubber spacer for my Tanabe NF210 springs, the problem vanished. My problem now is rear toe is f*****d :( The driver's side is toe-in, the passenger side is toe-out lol. At least my camber is within spec although I've been thinking of putting a bit of toe-out at the back and slightly more camber up front. Sigh and I swore I'd stop spending on the Yaris for now lol

I'm lazy about getting the shims and an alignment and I misplaced the shims that came with the Penguin Hub Spacers (I think it came with shims? lol)

PS the Penguin guys were great to deal with! ;)

No, I'm still rubbing. I have been too busy recently with buying a house/moving to fix it

randode is a scion guy. he's legit.

but it's in VERY bad taste to come over here supplying a similar product (of much crappier quality) to undercut penguin garage, etc
