Tamago's guide to ultimate yaris handling

[advocate]

Tamago could you offer your opinion on these wheels:

http://www.good-win-racing.com/Mazda...t/21-1045.html

Things I need help choosing:
Tire sizes: for street use. going for good mix between weight / traction. have 205s now would like to go smaller.
Wheel size: 14s vs 15s. i want a good mix between weight / looks. i'm thinking 14s just might be too small since the car is not a miata after all.
Wheel width: 15x7? 15x7.5?

Relevant info:
Running the DF210s and Tokico blues.

If I had to take a stab in the dark i'd probably go with 15x7.5 with 195/50/15.
Any thoughts? More importantly is that Miata wheel even going to fit? I picked them because they're cheaper than hell, amazingly light, and from konig. Figured it was a great combo.
Thanks!

if you're going for looks, avoid 6.5" wide wheels. they simply don't fill the fenders very well. if you're looking to save weight, the wheel above is the one for you, very lightweight for the money, but you're sacrificing (IMO of course) looks FOR weight, i think that wheel looks awful hehe.

i use a spec miata wheel right now (Team Dynamics) and it is a perfect fit as if it were made for the car.

Even this two year old thread still has useful information. I also ordered wheels (Rota RB's) to Mazda Miata specifications, and they'll be arriving any day now.

My thanks to the good folk who left these messages of good advice.
