lowering springs + bigger&wider rims - Toyota Yaris Forums

vintagera · 09-30-2015, 10:53 PM

hi guys, i'm a newbie to the forum so wanted to ask some of the experienced guys here.

I recently bought 2006 Yaris 3dr hatch and I'm looking for lowering options on the market.

I'm not looking for a drastic drop, in particular TRD springs caught my eye with 0.5 in front and 1.5 in back drop.

Currently I have stock alloy rims 15x5.5 with 185/60 tyre, don't know the offset. i'm looking to get bigger rim 16x6.5 to put either 195/50 or 205/50 tyres on it to keep the circumference of the wheel close to stock.

any feedback on these springs would be appreciated: how the quality of the ride changed and is there any rubbing with bigger rims?

and does anyone know where it is possible to get these springs in Australia?
Thanks!
