NEW SPRINGS: need a TEST SUBJECT - Toyota Yaris Forums

advocate · 10-17-2009, 01:43 AM

One could argue that a Yaris doesn't need anything out of the factory, however you'll find that snow tires / wheels setups are fairly common among our Canadian members.

Not sure how winters in Bristol, Rhode Island compare to Canada so you'll have to use your own judgment there or talk to some of our more northern inclined members about whether it's necessary or not.

But you'll find that the stock eagle tires are better for little more than getting amazing MPG. They're very small and very skinny so their traction is going to be limited. For best results and questions about tire pressure you can refer to the MPG subforums. Some members ride with as much as 60PSI in their stock tires.
