I can tell you that 14" Echo steelies are significantly lighter than 15" Yaris Alloys.
I was shocked when I did the first change-over. Braking is unreal with the lighter set-up. Accelleration, while noticabley stronger, is aided by the gear ratio advantage of the smaller diameter winter tires on the 14's then.
