He clearly stated that he was doing it for looks. To which you reply with a question about why he want's to increase the rear track....wait a minute...you asked him why he wants to increase his rear track greater than the rear. What are you asking?
at any rate, he's doing it for looks. If he wants to run a 10" wheel with 0 offset, so be it. He's doing it for looks. Not everybody wants to be a Johnny-go-go-speedracer. |

you sound hostile. it was a simple question, who cares if it is just for looks, you still want it to drive straight, and i'm pretty sure he'll go full throttle from time to time, and take a couple corners above the posted reccomeneded speed. and yes it was a typo on my part, I was asking why he was increase the rear track greater than he was increasing the front. I'll edit the original post, so not to confuse anyone further. |

Nope, no hostility.
I guess my point out of the whole deal is that it sounds like it's purely asthetical and he probably is not concerened with performance. |

Regarding your autocross setup, I wouldn't recommend the 15x7 +22's they'll stick out too far and you won't be able to run a decent sized tire. You want to try and stay in the +30 or higher offset range if you plan to run a 205 or wider tire without major rubbing. My track wheels right now are 15x7 +35 and they fit nice and flush with 195/55/15 Bridgestone RE55S (r-compounds) this tire is know to run wide, and I also increased my front camber to max (-2 deg) by purchasing the thinnest camber bolts from Toyota (12.4mm vs. 15mm stock) for both mounting holes, and set the strut to max neg. camber on both sides. Toe is set at 0. I have more than 5 sets of wheels for the Yaris already, I like trying out different setups, and the style wheels are just that, for style. The look I'm after is a deep dish, and to achieve that it's necessary to go with a lower offset. I didn't want to compromise the front too much, so I stayed with a somewhat conservative offset and ~3" lip. On the rear I'll have almost 4" lip and peformance shouldn't be adversely affected noticably, but I'll make sure to give my honest oppinion if I find out otherwise. |

i think im going to get a set of 16x7's and run a 205/50/16 azenis on it. ill pick up a set of 15's with R compounds for track when i start going. at least there are alot of choices when it comes to that size tire.

the only reason i have no issue trying the +22mm's is they will be free to use/borrow for a test run.
last thing i would do is buy wheels w/o testing something as a gauge. |

not to ruin everyones fun, but why is everyone runny such skinny tires? 185, 195, 205? I went up to a 225-50-15 with no problems 15x7 +38 wheel, this thing corners like a go-kart

Bride also have a part number for the NCP91 Vitz/Yaris, sorry I don't have it available but you can order it from most Japan dealers or Tees USA the Bride importer can bring it in for you. Most of the Bride brackets will fit Recaro buckets also.
The JDM TRD brackets for the JDM TRD-Recaros will probably only fit the narrowest of bucket seats. The link above is only for a bottom mount which only works with the reclineable TRD sport seat. Here's a link to the TRD buckets: http://trdparts.jp/parts_trd-recaro.html VERY PIMP!!! to bad my fat ass will never fit them :( |
