I recall that a couple of Yarisworld members had 205/50/17's on stock suspension and don't remember them reporting issues. I've also seen Vitz and Beltas in Japan running 205/50/17's on stock suspension.

205 vs 215 size should be very miniscule correct? Just a bit wider. So in your honest opinion (and anyone else here) think I'll be fine running the 215/50/17's for a DD? I'm just afraid of brake failure (read that online somewhere) or premature transmission/engine wear.
