Here is another good calculator, just in case you found the other ones a bit too confusing. This is also good to compare stock size with any aftermarket size.

those TRD wheels make no sense. With the TRD springs and the TRD Option 18x7.5, ET42, 215/35/18 = 23.9

can someone explain to me how these wouldnt rub big time? If 205 rubs on stock wheels, how is 215 with a 42 offset not going to rub?

Does anyone know the exact dimensions of this wheel: http://www.trdsparks.com/displaypart...&parts_id=1101

I have the standard steel wheel black and ugly with ghetto hubcaps and wan't something else...

I have 185/60/15 on the wheels right now and want to make sure the Toyota alloy wheels from TRD will still work with those and such?

thanks!

from a performance and wallet stand point, what is a recommended setup for standard springs and 1.5" dropped? I keep finding 15" x 6.5" is about as large without getting too heavy (i was hoping to go as light or lighter than stock, if that's possible while still going slightly taller and much wider). assuming 15x6.5, is 185/55 a good fit, or are the tires too skinny for the rim?

Example: FR 205/50/16//RR 215/50/16

Example: FR 205/40/17//RR 215/40/17
why are staggered tire sizes not recommended for the yaris? too much understeer as a result?

Although 205/55/15 is still perfectly acceptable if you'd rather fill out the wells a bit more. I'm very happy with my setup though.

Are you talking about the Toaster or the Yaris?

"15x5.5, ET45, 185/60/15 = 23.7" is that offset for the stock black steel rims and hubcaps or the stock alloys? or both?
