Ok would like to know which offset you would recommend... Looking at a 2008, 3 dr with Tein springs, Kosei 17x7 with 205 40 17, the rims come in 2 offsets, 38 and 42. Which would be the wiser choice?

Thanks

I would recommend ET42. With the drop and 205mm rubber, ET42 works best up front.

How much would my Belta's fuel consumption be affected by adding 185/65/R15 after the stock 165/70/R14.

How about 17x7.5 ET40 rear and ET45 front with 205/40/17?

Here's my plan: '10 Yaris 5-door LB, Rota RB 15x7 either +35 or +40 and 195/60/15's on H&R Sport Springs. Anybody have a similar setup and have rubbed? I would prefer the +35 but +40 would ok.

Thanks.

so If I wanted to keep the 60 sidewall, +40 would be better right? Why I want 195/60 is so I can have that extra 10mm of tread width but still be able to purchase long life tires. The little car isn't gonna be a racer but a daily driver. An awesome looking one.

195/50 and 195/60 are the same width.

Please help. Will 215/45/17 tires (from a Scion Tc) fit on my rims that are currently wrapped in 205/40/17.
I want to change the tires because I currently have some no-name summer tires and I'd like to swap them for the all-season Yokohamas.

Yes, the tires will fit on the wheels. Whether or not they will rub on the fenders is another question.

Thanks for the help. I am not lowered, just stock. It is the daily driver, with two kids in the back, wife and I in front. Does this matter?

Stock height should be no problem.
