Look awesome!! I'm hoping to go with a 16" wheel in the future. Are yours 6.5" or 7" wide?

Mine are 7" wheels, and if I'm not wrong, its ET45. I'm riding on very grippy Dunlop SP Sportmaxx 195/50R16. It does look abit stretched. 6.5" would be perfect, but then.... it is rare for 16x6.5 to exist.

Looking down from the top in front, I do see the extreme ends of the tires sticking just slightly inside of the fenders, and the lower half, where the rim protector is, protruding out abit. Its perfect, totall flush, but no rubbing. I think 205s might look better, but it may rub.

The rear sticks in abt 1 finger, a 5mm spacer will make it look flush, but... I wouldnt bother. The Yaris bumper curves inwards when viewed from the back, so it gives the look that the tyres are pushed outwards nicely.

I hope u get what I'm trying to say.
