My baby w/ New Wheels!!! :)

Just purchase these rims for my new Yaris sedan and all i can think about is gotdamn i need to lower my car!!! lol!
Any suggestions on a nice good quality set of lowering springs for me to go with? Im thinking a 1.5 - 2 inch drop would look really nice... :)
I eventually want to go w/ a coilover set up but broke after purchasing my yaris and these rims so will have to go w/ lowering springs for now.
Another concern i have is if I drop 1.5 to 2 inches do you guys think ill need to purchase a camber kit and if so any suggestions on any specific camber kit to go with? I see a bunch of camber kits on ebay for pretty cheap, what are you guy's opinion on those? looks like its just bolts and screws to me but if it helps im all for it!!

Also if anyones bored i would love to see how my car would look lowered so wondering if any photoshop masters on here can hook a brother up!! hehe!
I would do it myself but im pretty much computer illiterate!! any advice suggestions, feedback will be appreciated!!! Thanks guys!!

If you want a street rideable car with a nice stance, IMO get H&R sport springs for an attractive drop and durability. Don't know what size rims/tires you have but with H&R's drop, a camber kit is not likely necessary.

Enjoy your new ride!

Nice wheels! Tanabe NF210 springs are great for daily driving. I'd recommend those

Whether or not you will rub depends on the offset of the wheels. Do you know what it is? Post if you do, find out and post if you don't.

with that 40 offset i don't believe you'll have any trouble with rubbing.

Nice looking rims, you can try what was mentioned above or you can try the MI springs too, or if you want something aggressive S-Tech
