will it fit?
17x8.5 25mm offset?
I would get the black ones and then slam the car as much as I can. The car is slow so might as well make it look good. |

i personally think rim width is too wide, and offset is too low. if it was 17x7.5, offset ~40mm, then you'd be ok. really hard to find a nice wheel with lots of lip in a higher positive offset. they look nice though!

From what I've been told here they might not be able to fit over the front brakes, etc.

If you want the look of a multi-piece wheel, you should buy a multi-piece wheel. :P

Its the +25 mm part, not the size part.
I doubt you'd have much problems with rubbing.

Do we know the stock offset on the Yaris? I think it's +40 or +42; I know it's higher than the xB, which is +38.
If you lower the car with a +25, you might have to worry about rubbing. Tirerack.com is recommending +40 and higher for the Yaris. If anyone is in the Milwaukee, WI area, I'd be willing to slap on one of my wheels (+35) to see if it'd rub. |

Isn't the offset completely dependent on the rim width? So +40 might be what they recommend for a 7" wide rim, but not necessarily for an 8.5" wide rim.

Well, since you're so tactless about your opinion on everyone else's choices I'll just say that they're fugly as all hell and the fact that it's a poser rim makes it even worse. Please don't buy those.
