More practical or less practical to get new wheels? - Toyota Yaris Forums

yeah, so i was reading an older post about the wieght of the stock steelies and the lowest lb. reading someone got without a tire was 16 lb. That was a lot more than i expected so maybe i will get some new wheels when i get the car!!! You can get kosie's at tirerack that are the same exact size but only wiegh 10 lb.'s!!...I test drove a 5speed liftback by the way...I was looking at discounttire.com and they had "MB wheels" that looked pretty cool and were fairly cheap in 15x7/15x6.5 but thier wieght isn't listed anywhere so i am sure they are heavy compared to competitor's wheels but does anyone know for sure?..the konig helium wheels are cool too, i didnt know you could get em that cheap..

By the way, would someone mind starting a thread in here just for a list of all known suspension goodies for the yaris(With no discussions: just listings with price) It sure would be nice to have all of that in one place: springs, dampers, coil-overs, stress bars, underbody stiffeners, etc.....whaddya think?

thanks for the compliment on my little mazda too!! she's my baby!!...lol
