Tyre Size on 16" Wheels Black Machined - Toyota Yaris Forums

They are correct, it might look better.

1. Slight diff on the handling over uneven roads as the 205 tires tend to be less tolerant to unevenness. They tend to steer the car to where the road takes the tires.

2. Fuel economy they say will be a little different too, but thats just based on a wider contact patch and a taller tire. I dont have experience/actual testing as to how true this may be, mostly bec of item#3.

3. Gauge reading will be slightly off, speedometer hence odometer and trip meters.

Again these are "slightly," would not be a cause for concern for me (if you asked me)
