15x8 end all questions - Toyota Yaris Forums

Stay close to stock height(185/60,195/55,205/55) as possible. When you have short tires, you end up having a big gap. If you want to drop your car more to fill in the gaps, you will rub and scrape everywhere. Besides, the Yaris has a high roof and doesn't look too good with little tiny wheels and tires. Too low is good for show, but it's wack if you ain't driving on smooth roads or the track!(Jessie Jackson speaking about lowered cars)

As far as wheels, you shouldn't go wider than 7''(15x7,16x7,17x7) with a 38 offset(38-45). You will still need to add adjustable camber bolts to the front to tuck them in and to keep from busting up your fenders(anything from 38-41 will need camber). If you have spacers in the rear, I suggest you add the washers to get negative camber, or just take them off.

Stick to what works. That way, you don't have to keep changing things out and wasting time and money. You wanted a second opinion, and you got one. Good luck!
