I have a manual and I really want to put a tachometer on it that is a good quality. Also, you are telling me that 15 light is better than 17 as far as for performance? I just want good handing on my yaris because I travel at least 500 miles or more weekly. I'm also deciding if I should put a strut bar and a short shifter on it. Can you give me some enlightenment on that???

Yes when it comes to cars, especially wheels, lighter is better.

For a tach, better stick to a good, well known brand like AutoMeter, they have a LOT of different styles.

Strut bars are debatable. The general consensus is that they really come into play when cornering very fast like on a racetrack. A sway bar, on the other hand, is a highly recommended mod that will help the car roll less, at any speed.

Short shifter, big improvement :D Get the bushings as well, it really makes the shifter a lot more solid and direct.
