Question Has anyone installed wheel spacers/ custom tires on 3rd Gen??

Hi All,
I like to have swap my yaris with a low profile tires ( 195/50/R15) and add spacers so they stick out of the fender. Researching on options available and came across the below spacers. Has anybody installed spacers on a 3rd Gen?? Would there be a ride height rubbing problem loading weight/ people on the back.

Also, can i go with 195/50/R15 tires. online stores show these are not compatible. any suggestions please.


Here is the product,

Hi,
I have some 205/50/R16 with 10mm spacers, and also lowering springs, it rubs every time I encounter a depression on the road or when I have with kids in the back. Didn't use to rub before spacers. But with original car height you should be fine.
Also, the wheel have 4 studs, so the spacer shown on the link will not work. And if you want to check what tire size is matching the original go to tiresize.com.

Personally I find tires poking out beyond the fenders looks like shit. Add to that a wheel/tire combo roughly 1 inch less in diameter than stock, double shit. Just my opinion. It is your ride.

Is he your neighbor? If not, that:s good, so you will not have to look at it everyday.

Thank you Alain93. spacer link i shared is an example. The vendor does a made to order based on vehicle information. Thank you for the heads up.

Wheels sticking out is my thing may be, i like the look of wheels poking out.
