New Shoes for my Yaris - Toyota Yaris Forums

ibrahimshetayah · 01-06-2011, 09:04 AM

My Yaris is the 2008 sedan
I have the stock rims 15"
and I want to replace the tires
the stock size was 185/60 r 15
what size shall I choose, the stock ?! or 205/55 r 15 or 185/65 ????

IMO, 205/55s could tend to look pinched, giving a bulging sidewall appearance. That tire size really wants a 7" rim.

If you can find them, some 195/55s would work nicely.

the problem is that in Egypt taht changging the rims is quite expensive

he means 7" wide. not 17" diameter rims. either way, new rims sounds out of the questions

My Yaris needs new hoes too.

I agree with Wee, 195/55 or 185/60.

If you don't plan to lower your car, 205/55's work fine on stock rims. Or go with 195/60's which make for a better fitment than the stock 185's.
