Just pony up the extra $160 or so for a set of cheap-ass 14" steel rims if you're buying seperate winter tires, then buy really GOOD winter tires and only use them once the average daily high temperature drops to 60 or less. Block off your upper grill on your Yaris when you put the tires on too.
Sure, it'll cost about $570 for the whole package, but remember that set of tires should last 3 seasons or so, and it'll only be $400 or so after that since you'll have a set of dedicated rims for your winter tires. I'm doing that with Bridgestone Blizzak WS60's, the Michelin X-Ice series is better for dry traction, but nothing comes close to the WS60's for actual on-the-ice and deep-snow traction on passenger cars like our Yaris. =^.^=
