I had 17s in my Yaris before. Ride quality is good, but it will probably also depend on your suspension setup. If you are on stiff coilovers, it will probably have a harsher ride. Try to get lightweight 17s. I’m in Eibach ProKit springs and KYB Lowfer Sports dampers. TRD recommends 205/45/17 tires. I wouldn’t suggest anything beyond 7 inch wheel width cuz of rubbing issues.

Thanks very much kappa_md! Excellent advice. Unfortunately, before the guy could send me pics, someone dropped in and bought them. Very disappointing. I am running on stock suspension. I also have 10mm Penguin Garage spacers on the back, but they could be removed if necessary.

I have played around with Gimp and come up with some possibilities. I'm pretty sure that both sets of Hyundai wheels in the pics below would work. The wheel offset for the Yaris and Hyundai is 46. I have to get specs on the Eagle 192. I am trying to keep a stock look, but would love to go to minimally a 16", preferably 17". Budget is a factor. I'd be willing to buy straight wheels that need refinishing as I have a paint booth and all the necessary equipment. Images are bordered for Instagram.
