Max offset

Anyone know what the max offset or better yet the proper offset to run on the Yaris with 17" wheels and/or 16" wheels? The car is lowered with the optional lowering springs... Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Looking for a non-rubbing, good fit!

I don't know about the Yaris, but the xB can do a 15 on a 8" & not rub

Well I've been advised +44 on 16" and +42 on 17", but I wanted to get a 2nd opinion...

I know for sure that the TRD 17 inchers for the Vitz in Japan are +50 offset...

The stock offset on the xA/xB is +38. I'm running a +35 up front and a +20 out back without issue. However, the fenders on the Yaris are obviously different than the xA/xB. I know if you run anything more than a +45 on the Scions you run the risk of the inside lip rubbing against the suspension.

EDIT: I just checked www.tirerack.com and most of the wheels they were offering for the 2007 Yaris were +45, so I guess the fit is different than the Scions. I wonder if my +35 would rub?

BUMP

Can anyone comment on the appropriate offset in selecting wheels for the Yaris hatch/liftback ?

16?
17?
With or without factory or non-factory lowering springs?

It looks like the range is about +40 to about +50.
