nice

cm07yaris · 08-13-2007, 01:21 PM

Thanks, I'm wishing it were still a bit lower, I guess it looks lower in person, the photos make the wheel gap look stock!

brickhardmeat · 08-13-2007, 01:26 PM

may settle a bit over time, it looks sporty to me, doesn't look stock but doesn't look slammed either

ChinoCharles · 08-13-2007, 01:41 PM

I am in the same boat... I'm lowered on TRD shocks/springs w/ 17's and I still have a gap. Look at it this way... sell those springs one day and buy into the DF's and say goodbye wheel gap!

Those rims are freekin gorgeous on your BB liftback.

cm07yaris · 08-13-2007, 01:48 PM

Thanks Chino! I'll try and get some shots when its darker out. The hyper black finish is incredible! As for the drop, I guess it works for me because I wanted ABSOLUTELY no rubbing, and it seems to be a safe bet so far.

*kimona* · 08-13-2007, 02:13 PM

It looks great! Sidewalls appear tucked just a hair up front.

The gap looks perfect to me; it's even all 'round... top, front, and rear of each tire. I think the gap looks best that way rather than tight over the top of each tire... and, of course, a good daily driver with no rubbing problems that way.

seanele · 08-13-2007, 02:37 PM

maybe i'm wrong..
but i believe Yarisdarkness black yaris also has 1.5 drop,
has the same rims and the same tires size as yours.

dude..they look very low!
and yes, there is a little gap..but that if you look from 5 feet maybe..

anyway, what you have now..is damn hot for a Blue Yaris!
talk about lightweight..

Kaotic Lazagna · 08-13-2007, 03:14 PM

nice. i wanted a blazing blue LB...i want those Go-Zigen rims.

kapo · 08-13-2007, 04:38 PM

niceeeeeee!!! that was the picture of rim I was looking! I wasn't sure which size to get, 16 or 17.. now that i saw those pictures, Im loving the 16!

(now I have 18" right now, i like that size, but I hate when I run over holes or big cracks on the road)

Doc Zaius · 08-13-2007, 05:46 PM

Looks nice!! Wheel gap might be more pronounced since you're crouching down to take the pics... if you took them at normal eye level, might not look so bad.

I'm still debating between 195/50/16, 205/50/16, and 205/45/16. The 205/50 just looks like a lot of sidewall to me! But probably fills out the gap more...?

cm07yaris · 08-13-2007, 05:49 PM

I'm guess if you went with a 195 you would use the Tein's or DF's for a drop?

solarVitz · 08-13-2007, 10:59 PM

oh wow, looks nice and clean. congrats.

yrsdrgn · 08-13-2007, 11:07 PM

that looks nice. I like how the color of those rims go nicely with a blue yaris and i like how the rid height looks on your car.

cali yaris · 08-13-2007, 11:31 PM

awesome!!

paint the calipers black!

largeorangefont · 08-13-2007, 11:43 PM

It will probably settle. Looks great.

cm07yaris · 08-14-2007, 02:15 AM

Thanks everyone! Hopefully the exhaust should be here by the end of the week!

cm07yaris · 08-17-2007, 08:33 PM

UPDATE: I can confirm that I am running +42 up front, and +33 in the rear.
