How wide of a rim would will fit on the yaris without sacrificing functionality?

If you never want to worry about rubbing you can easily for a 6.5 inch wide with a +28 offset with 185 wide rubber. You'll also have more space for a wider tire on that set up.

Keep in mind this is with -2.8 camber front and -1.8 rear on lowering springs

I have also had 7inch wide +25 in the rear with 195 side r comp rubber and they rubbed by 1mm on the inner metal of the fender. I'll be rolling that to alleviate this issue.

So in short, 6.5 wide with +28 offset will be fine if you have camber bolts up front and a camber washer in the rear

7 inches, +42/+38 offset is a nice happy place.
