Kimona, wheels are 17" x 7" +40 offset. I have 10mm H&R wheel spacers installed in the rear.

Thanks for the compliment.

Yaris 2008 LB Pics with Tanabe DF210's & Kosei K1 TS 14" Wheels

Most people put larger wheels on, but I decided to go the other way and go with the 14" wheels. Thought some may be interested in the appearance. Not really after high speed takeoffs. Do most of my acceleration after I'm moving and that is pretty rare. Mostly playing with fuel economy. This wheel/tire combo is 24 pounds each (9 pounds for wheel and 15 pounds for tires).

That's my 1999 Civic Si in front of the Yaris

AWESOME !!!!!!

You have exactly the same wheel as me, and same color of wheel

Those 9 lb is awesome

This is mine with Kosei K1 TS also, the shop weighed mine 9.2 lb though.

I am diggin' the 14"s. I wonder if 13s would fit over the brakes? :) Coming from the Mini world the 13" wheel was the biggest that was ever offered. Earlier cars had 10" or 12" wheels.

Small is better in my world. :)

17" Core Racing Evo 7. Nitto Neogen 205/40R17. The tires are insane! I can take corners at stupid speeds without a problem.
The pictures don't do it justice. It looks great in person. These rims are not my ideal ones but the whole package cost me $500. Can't go wrong with that.


Calipers have since been painted black.
