how small of a wheel can you go ?? - Toyota Yaris Forums

CPALK719 · 07-03-2012, 04:22 PM

i was curious of what is the smallest size wheel you can fit on the yaris?? i own a 2012 and i just so happen to still have a set of 98 tercel ce stock alloys. i believe their 14 inch.

would these fit? or would there be any clearance issues with the brakes? thanks for any info

14 is about as small as you can go. Ive seen a few guys on here with 13's but they have to be a really low offset to clear the calipers.

this guy was running 13s et20 (not that low offset) and I think barber always chimes in on these that he has run 14 before but I might be wrong.

We got a custom 13x7 Jongbloed Racing wheel built, with a very mild offset (+38mm) that clears the stock brakes. You do have to watch out where you line up your wheel weights or they will hit the caliper - but we don't balance race tires anyway.

As others have pointed out, most of the off the shelf 13" stuff will require more offset, or spacers.

I run stock 14" Mazda Protege steelies with my winter tires. No clearance issues there.

alright good to know !!! thanks guys. i might try either painting the wheels or possibly getting them powdercoated. im in no rush though, considering the tires on my 2012 are still pretty good im only at 64xx miles on them.
