Rubbing: 185/60/15 w/NF210's - Toyota Yaris Forums

songa · 12-10-2008, 03:04 PM

hey guys, just a quick question...if i am running on 15" rims with 185/60/15 size tires (same size as stock), and i have my sedan lowered with NF210's, will i get any rubbing? i heard that i probably wont, but my main concern is the OFFSET. i have a set of 15" wheels that have an offset of 38mm but im still a lil unclear as to what affect offset values have on rubbing. does anybody know if a 38mm offset with those wheels and tires and nf210's will cause rubbing on a sedan? any help apreciated, thanks!

With that tire size you will be more than fine!
You might rub if you go wider ( 205's)

Go ahead...

Where in MA are you?

I have NF210 OEM wheels with 185/60/15 and 205/50/15 and no rubbing at all!

BTW it drives much better than stock

nice thats some good info, thanks. im from the worcester area, but i work in cambridge, and im often in the allston/brighton area. i plan on doing NF210's on stock everything. i will probably get new rims but i plan on getting ones that are the exact same size as stock wheels. i do frequent some prety steep bumps tho..im hoping i can clear those easy =)

You'll be OK,

I work in Marlboro and Maynard we have projects all over the place, I go to Boston very often.

I have the S model you will be OK with the base model.

I can't tell you how much better ride I get with NF210s it's a complete new car, feels much better. and looks great

cool, im not that worried then. have you ever considered installing the TRD sway bar as well? im really more after the looks than the performance but ihear so many good things about the sway bar and its not that expensive so i mite just have to try it out someday.

TRD Sway is in my wish list on 1st place! if you ever consider getting one, let me know and we'll split the shipping.

its a deal! i havent thot about a timetable yet but i was thinking of doing a majority of these things in the spring once the bad weather and conditions are over with. in case you buy it before me, let me know when you plan on doing it, as I am flexible.

Spring sounds good to me, we should pass the word to other Yaris owners in the area. We could save $ with a buy group.
