Fitment Question..help
Ok so my GF is looking at some wheels which are 16x7 +35 for her Yaris...shes lowered on Tanabe springs and I just need to know if she will have any issues with rubbing at all before we buy these. We were thinking about using her stock tires also.
Any help and input in appreciated! Thanks in advance. |

Looks like they would have to be pretty narrow tires 175-185's(don't know if they make them, sure doesn't look like it). The stock Yaris 16" wheel is 16x6. So you'd need spacers for a 16x7 wheel. Or go narrower. |

16x7 +35 with 195/16 or 205/16 is just fine with 45 or 50 series tires. Don't need spacers at all. In fact, don't add spacers or you'll make the wheel stick out of the fender and rub for sure. You can probably run your stock tires if you want - what's the specs on them?

Stock/OEM tires are most probably 185/60/15's.
If you're dropped on NF's, and you run 16x7, ET35, I would suggest 195/50/16's. You'll be flush up front with this fitment, and may experience minor rubbing depending on the tyre you choose. However, if you're dropped on DF's, this fitment will more than likely rub up front. |

Rubbing on the fender liners is less of a problem than rubbing on the metal fender edges, too. Decide if both are unacceptable. Most rubbing happens on the plastic liners, which can be trimmed.
