I would either buy a wheel that hides them a bit like I did, which also fit the style I am going for, or replace the brakes, or leave them alone. They are what they are dressing them up will make them look silly. That's my opinion. Enkei has come other options that may mask the brakes a bit more. The brakes are fine for this car , of course, we don't need anymore stopping power.

A few years back I had a '98 Intrepid on which I installed aftermarket wheels. Those wheels also showed a lot of brake. I didn't want to spend the money to purchase aftermarket brake parts just to dress up the looks, so I bought some flat black spray paint which was also a corrosion inhibitor. This makes the brake parts that would normally be visable without the paint virtually invisable. You really had to be looking for the brake parts to see them as the flat black hides them very well. I would probably do the same with the Yaris, depending on how noticeable the parts are.
