Hmm I see wheels on his Yaris. Steelies are great wheels and can really take a beating. The only thing I say to done are new all-season tires, lowering springs, and wheel spacers. The lowering springs will drop it 2 inches all around. The all-seasons are worth more then summer tires cause you get more out of them. The spacers will give you a wider track and take up the excess wheel fender gap. I recommend Tein S Tech lowering springs. I have them on my own yaris and they been on for almost 3 years.

Great looking Yaris. I have the same color but mine is the 4 door hatch. I have to say my first time seeing front mud flaps and also no rear wiper.

ty mine is sitting on Eibach springs now i do have some all season that will go on tuesday..would love to go lower but not practical in my area and as daily driver to work...had lower on my integra and it was nothing but pain. The car did drop around 1.8 f/r also i have replaced the struts with KYB's and shocks ...drives fantastic.
Problem is with my small 175/65 14 tires the gap looks larger. As for wheel spacer ..i dont like what they do to the wheel bearings.

Lovin' the wheels. I did notice that your front emblem is missing. Why is that?

Coilovers are expensive and in reality completely unnecessary for normal daily driving. I do love my Megans, but if I were to do it again I would probably go for the HTS Reds. http://shop.microimageonline.com/Tok...ks-HTS-116.htm

Especially at the price MI has them now. Dirt cheap.

Thanks for that link. I was looking into new shocks anyway. I find most coilovers too troublesome. I dont really need to adjust the damper. I want a pre-set damper that would fit my needs. Thats why I am looking at Fat Cat Mototsport (FCM) for my miata. I was thinking of doing the same for my yaris cause I drive both my cars hard lol.
