Don't think that I posted up the 18" XXRs that I bought from Orlando in this thread. I was missing the inserts, but they will be installed this upcoming summer when I have them installed:

Had them on up to winter. Right now I am rockin a set of steelies that I bought from Garm. The white DXRs I have are going to be blasted and redone once I can find a place to get them done in New England. The 18s roll really nice at the LSRs and give me an additional 4" per rotation which gives me of course better top end, but they are 50lbs a corner with rubber as opposed to the DXRs are only around 37lbs with rubber.

I thought you sold the car and bought the Miata.
From a fellow wheel freak, I agree, those wheels match your car best.

I ended up keeping both. Miata cracked the oil pan so I kept the Yaris. And thanks! :)

^ That's definitely not +15, my guess would be +30.

I still think they are +25 or +30ish. Here's a few sets I've ran in the past..


17x7 +10




15x7 +19 rear (front is +31)




15x6.5 +26 rear (front is +38)

H&R Springs Anyone?

Anybody have any experience with, or opinions on the H&R Sports Springs???
I have looked at all 57 pages on here and saw ONE person list them, and while I know it is for WHEELS, it is the best place to see which springs people are running and what they look like.

If I decide I want a slightly larger drop than the Eibach Pro's, how are the H&R's??? Ride quality, etc? I don't see them used very much on the Yarii here.

The Eibach Sportline is just a little too much of a drop for my needs (though they look amazing), but the Pro's might be a little too little.

Thanks!

H&R is a good reputable company, but not sure what to tell you other than that. I guess the real question is how did you like what you saw on the ones installed?

^Remember I am running -1 degrees and -2 degrees front and rear respectivly. They aren't 30 though, bc I trimmed the front inner gaurd and removed the rear inner gaurd and it never rubbed on either with +38 offset and now front and rear rubs. Same exact suspension setup and same tires, but these rub front and back.

Ah okay, couldn't tell you had camber - I've never ran camber on the Yaris. Just looked like alot of room to have on your +15's as mine poked like crazy at +10.

Next time you have them off you should measure the offset. :)

Just got these 17's today. Looking for a good place in Sydney, Australia to bring it to lower it properly! Going to remove the decals next week too.
It's a start of my mods but it could lead to heaps more!

No idea on the wheels, but that is one damn good looking Yaris (I may be a little partial to all black).

Didn't get to go out for a pro shoot, rain worked its way in by the evening hours when I wanted to go out.

'09 Yaris, full TRD suspension
BF Goodrich G-Force TA 205/45 ZR17 on Mini S Lites
Not sure on the offset, but they don't rub on suspension travel. They will rub on full lock though.





Already looking for alternate OEM non-Toyota wheels though. 45 series 17s are just too stiff for an all-highway commute. I think I may find somebody to trade some Honda Fit Sport 16s with.
