Factory Lowering Springs + MAX Wheels? What are the options?

I'm wondering if anyone here can offer some advice as to what wheel sizes and offsets would work with a Yaris RS Hatch/liftback that is lowered with the factory lowering springs?

Right now I'm debating whether to go with 16" or 17", and I am concerned about possible rubbing or contact if I decide to go with the bigger wheel size.

Any advice on wheel sizes, appropriate tire sizes, and offsets?

Even with the factory lowering kit you shouldn't have a problem with reasonably wide 17" wheels.

Reasonable meaning 17x7-7.5 inch wheels with 205/45 17 tires.

Considering the TRDs are 18s and fit fine with the TRD suspension, you should be fine as long as you get proper offset. TRD car runs on215/35/18s.
