I have the five-spoke OEM alloys on my sedan... it came this way, and it is NOT an S (but is "loaded" otherwise). The S has no bearing on wheel choice, the wheels are an upgrade option. Also, I see S sedans pretty often with steelies and plastic wheel covers.
In my opinion, the 5-spoke looks better on sedans, like mine, while the newer 8-spoke design looks better on hatchbacks. I don't think the 5-spoke is available anymore, if Toyota's website is any indication. But either is a vast improvement over plastic wheel covers.

I also covet these two OEM alloys. Wish they were available new for less than a fortune. I checked prices at the dealer once, and the price per wheel was ~$350/wheel(!) if I remember correctly. The alloys I've seen in the Toyota accessory catalog (I guess these are the Chinese ones) look too cheap (no offense to those that may have these).
 I would have gotten my latest Yaris with these nice alloys, but Toyota's Midwest district doesn't offer them!

I like them too! IMO, those are the best looking wheels ever put on the Yaris. They compliment to look of the Yaris perfectly! They can occasionally be found on ebay for a reasonable price, but latley all I've seen there is individual wheels for sale, no full sets.
