I can't wait to put these wheels on my car...
The pictures don't do them justice. The blue really pops.

I'll have them on as soon as my lugs come in.

I don't think they're that "light"...15 pounds each. That's heavy, isn't it? I really don't know.

15" stock steel wheels and tires 33lb each.

From: http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/sho...=weight+wheels

So around 17ish lbs I guess.

Really? Interesting...so, will the lighter wheels cause my MPGs to go up slightly?

Should. Though 2lbs x 4 = <10lbs. I guess the tires will be the deciding factor.

yes, less rotating mass equals quicker acceleration and a decrease in opposing inertial forces...better mileage too :)

Nice wheels Lisa!
