Being a social worker, I am poor as shit, hence the Yaris, and spending a good deal of money for minor mods seems like a waste. If it is a new addition, e.g., sway/tie bars, tinting, etc...then I would feel better about the purchase. Rims, however, do seem to make sense. I my opinion.

heh, yeah, if you're worried about ground clearance, then you should opt for the TRD springs or Tanabe NF springs. i have the Tein S.Tech's and it's pretty low (i like it like that, but the plastic flap in front of the rear tire rubs when going over speedbumps when i have a full car. but yeah, a lot of people here say that adding aftermarket struts and shocks with OEM springs is a good set up for handling. heh, i don't have sway bars (i want the TRD rear one). get the Tanabe Sustec front strut bar. pretty easy to install and relatively cheap. yes, rims make sense, but i don't have the money for those right now.
