Will 13" Civic wheels fit? - Toyota Yaris Forums

evan · 11-10-2008, 04:09 PM

A local guy is selling some winter tires on 13" Civic wheels (4x100) for a good price. Will those wheels interfere with the brakes or anything else on my Yaris?

There are some people that have put 13s on their Yaris. I think you'll probably just want to do a test fit if possible to make sure you have enough clearence for the front brakes.

13s would be pretty sweet. 13x7 is a monster truck wheel / tire in the classic Mini world :) At 2300lbs (2d HB) the Yaris isn't toooo far off what the last Minis weighed (around 1800lbs). Screw 20s... 13s are way cooler.

I've heard 13's won't fit over the brake rotors.

you would need a pretty low offset 13inch wheel to clear the calipers

reznunt had Lenzo VDP 13x7.5. Looks pretty good.
So we know at least some 13's will fit.

Just curious: Did you get the wheels/tires? I'm in a similar situation now. A lot of 13" wheels/tires for sale on craigslist for cheap, but I'm not sure if the 13" Honda steelies will fit ...

Sorry, I'm no help. I ended up buying some new snow tires and having them installed on my factory steelies.

i dont know, ive got 14's on right now, and i wouldnt say they clear the caliper by 1/2"

and ya, youll need a big offset to clear the calipers too....i tried the 14x5.5 miata rims from an early model, and they rubbed the calipers when bolted down...

Thirty-Nine · 12-15-2008, 01:43 PM

Yeah, I'll probably steer clear of the little 13s, which is too bad: There's a lot of 13" snow tires for sale on Craigslist. Thanks for the reply!

Must be. That and VWs

Picked up a set of studded snow tires for our Civic via craigslist. Good studs, good tread, steel wheels with hubcaps for $160 (delivered to our snow-covered home). The catch? They're four different tires. All the same size, but 1 General, 1 Goodyear, 1 Kelley, and 1 Bridgestone. As long as they work, that's all I care about.
