Too lazy to do the kg>lb conversion, but in my experience, on a lightweight car like the Yaris, you'll definitely feel anything more than 3 pounds. Less than that will still make a difference, you just won't notice it as much.

Lighter wheels affect more than acceleration, you can really feel the difference in inertia in the effort that it takes to make a normal stop.
