#1 FTW!!!!!

Looks better, AND cheaper! Can't beat that!

#2 looks like something you'd find on a Latino-inspired Honda, with the teenie-tiny whitewalls sticking way out from beneath the fenders.... as close as you can get to wire spokes without having wire spokes.

#1. No question.

#1

contraband831 · 05-25-2007, 04:17 PM

#1 if you are getting 16"
#2 would look good if you get them in 18"
but whichever wheel you pick LOWERED would make it look better!

Vanderkitten · 05-25-2007, 05:28 PM

#2 will look larger than #1 in the same size... since the blades go all the way to the rim.

#1 is similar to the Weapon, which we run in 17"

I wish 17's didn't look stupid on these cars without lowering them, which I want to stay away from.

Why do you not want to lower the car?

Sabretooth · 05-25-2007, 06:30 PM

I wanted to buy #2 once before, and I decided to change my mind on a more cheaper rim, ICW Racing has a good selection, check them out.

*kimona* · 05-25-2007, 07:26 PM

Well, opinions seem to differ here.

I like #2 much better, and it will look bigger than #1 because of the design.

If you're not lowering the car, then on a 16x7 I would go with as close to a 45mm offset as possible. I see that #2 is 42mm and #1 is 40mm. Not a big diference.

I think I've seen a similar wheel to #2 on a silver Yaris Hatchback somewhere on this forum.

I'll try to find it for you.

If you're buying wheels/tires from discount tire, don't forget to email them as a new customer and get your $25 promo coupon. Also, you can get no interest financing and get a $50 rebate. And, the Kumho tires currently have a $40 rebate.

BTW, I'm getting new wheels/tires as well, and I won't be lowering my car. I'm going with a 16x7 ET45mm and 205/50/16 Kumho AST's.

Here we go... I found it. Hope this helps with your decision.

That looks pretty good....

Vanderkitten · 05-25-2007, 09:53 PM

I think #2 looks Euro, and #1 looks Japanese. I considered wheels like #2, but they were heavier than what I wanted to run. The upside, either way your car will look great!!

Here's what the car looks like, not lowered w/ 17's ... keep in mind, you can get some more conservative springs that lower the car 25mm or so... my car is 2.0" lower.

RogueYaris · 05-26-2007, 03:05 AM

if money is not a big concern to you then i would go with #2, otherwise #1 ftw. i don't mind the euro look, probably what i will be going with when it comes time to get rims.

thomasward00 · 05-26-2007, 03:56 AM

Money is not an issue, granted I don't want to put 200 dollar rims on a yaris but 115 each is not bad, with kuhmo tires they are quoting me like 775.00 shipped which isn't bad in my opinion.

eTiMaGo · 05-26-2007, 05:35 AM

gunmetal!

Violin · 05-26-2007, 08:14 AM

I like #2 best. Are you sure the offset will work with the Yaris?
