I have 15x7 ET20 Gunmetal Rota Grid - V rims with 185/45/15 nangkangs.
But my rear are going to have 15x8 ET0 Gunmetal ones with 195/45/15 toyo proxes, but that'll have to wait a few months :(| Thanks for the replies!

Tadaaaa! :D with a little bit of pushing (the seatbelt is pushing the plastic console inside, where the e-brake is) it went it pretty well... they really feel good and i'm sitting a bit lower (oh the irony). hope you like it! Also... I folded down the back seat... because when we tried to take it out; there were cables running underneath it and we didn't know what they were. so we kept the back seat in. As a finishing touch I put the rising sun flag over it! :D

Oh i just saw ur answer Deadliest..
I found them on Jappower.nl (dutch site)... Yes the seat mounts are from Wedge Engineering... they make them for the Yaris! Only downside is that the seatbelt spot is more outwards into the center console which results that the plastic will bend inside (don't really care about that)... They are Recaro Type-R seats (they are replica's!)

You have a crooked torsion beam as well right man? What did you do to even out the offset of the rear wheels?

Deadliest:
Well I know someone here use Golf 2 GTI fender flares which fit quite nicely with some work on them (bit of welding)... but I think he already removed them. You can maybe roll out ur stock fenders and twist them a bit to the outside. I'm not going too wide so I don't have to fuck with all that stuff. RSYaris: Thanks mate!! tamrat: you don't have to say the ''stupid'' infront of ''low''... maybe You just don't like it but you don't have to put it out there ;) everyone has his own style. And about speedbumps... yes I live in Holland and drive mainly in belgium which the roads SUCK bigtime... and ALOT of speedbumps, buuuut you just have to plan your route before you go somewhere you don't know (using google maps mainly)... but I know how to conquer the speedbumps, so i'm not worried about speedbumps... im more worried about roads with holes in them or badly maintained ;). And then do some scraping here and there. My rear left rim as a little dent in it because of the bad roads... but it's minor. Terence: Crooked torsion beam? you mean like I have a bit of camber, but without any camber settings :P? if so.. then yes. my rear rims look like having 1 degree camber the less offset rims you put them on (which is pretty cool haha!). I have 15x7 ET20 all around and use 20mm spacers in the back only ;)
