I've got some BC racing coilovers inbound for my 08 hatch, starting to look at new wheels. Current choices are either 17x9 ET25's or 17x8 ET33's. Thoughts? What would i have to do to fit these?

It depends what look are you going for. Are you looking at going the stanced route? If so, the 17x9 +25 setup will definitely poke out of the fender. The 17x8 +33 will also poke out but to a lesser degree. If you want the wheels to sit flush with the fenders then you will need a set of camber bolts / shims to dial-in some negative camber. Also, you will need to run stretched tires or do some fender rolling/pulling for clearance when going really low. Also, on most coilover setups for the Yaris, the rear will tend to not go low enough where you may need a set of shorter springs.

All nice rims n wheels, for the most part. Make sure to try and get a good tire, V or Z rated as they are sticky and grippy. The V should be sufficient. I was glad I did this morning 5:15 am, tight road, fallen tree around a bend in my lane, and a car and a full logging truck right at me simultaneous. I tried to stop, ABS kicked in, so swerved left (into oncoming traffic), then right and as I went right, I looked up at logs briefly, while making sure I didn't go off road to the right whilst turning back. So, Guardian Angel check, Michelin V rated Premiers, check. wOw. 12.5 hours later and I am happy to still be here. Some scratches from tree on right side, but, first look only three, and just scratches. Will look tomorrow when I catch my breath. Anyway, to reiterate my point, do not be cheap on tires when buying nice rims please. It does pay off sometimes. That and a guardian angel

Nice rims, where'd you pick those up from and do you know the specs? I'm looking for rims just like those
