tire help

I have a set of 205/55R16 Bridgestone Blizzak 91H LM25 tires I used to have on my rsx and I was wondering if anyone knew if they would fit on the yaris?

I am probally going to buy some rota's 16x7 and slap them on for winter. My delama was that I have steelies from a beemer that I can use for the winter so either way I have to buy tires or wheels. I just wanted to see if the tires would fit first.

They are a bit taller than factory spec. A 205/50/16 would be better. As long as you're not lowered, you shouldn't have a problem with rubbing. If you're lowered, it will rub.

well i'm sure the height won't be more than a .35" differencethat's like 3/8 of an inch taller so i doubt that much would matter. Thanks... anyone know of any super cheap wheels that run 16x7 4x100?

For winter why not just pick-up some steel wheels and not worry about damage that may be caused by salt, sand, etc. And cheaper than alloys too.

Yup, snow and ice caught up in the alloy wheel will really affect balance. Go for some cheap steel wheels for the winter.
