Lotus Wheels on my Yaris - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Please switch the orientation of the rims..larger in front, smaller in the rear. You have a front wheel drive car. smaller rim in the rear is to promote rotation in cornering.

I doubt those larger ones will fit in the front. I know I'm running 205/50/R16 and NF210s, I scrub pretty hard at full lock already.

Yeah, it's not gonna happen.
I understand the reasoning behind it, but this is a case of form>function for me.

Nice set of wheels! Any suspension mod's? I'm looking at some custom wheel/tire combination myself.

I'm lowered on M2 lowering springs that were cut a little bit extra up front, and stock shocks. I also have a TRD rear sway bar and aftermarket bumpstops in the back, but those things don't affect the height.

DAMN.

I saw you posted fresh in the thread and figured I was going to see install pics with proper rubber. Bastard!

Front: 16x5.5, +31.5, 195/50/16
Rear: 17x7.5, +38, 205/50/17

Front and rear both rub on large dips, so I'm going to do some more trimming up front. For the rears, I just installed some aftermarket bumpstops (I had removed most of the originals) that will keep the suspension from compressing all the way, and I might add a bit of camber as well if needed.

The #1 complaint I have now is the amount of understeer that I have now. With my TRD RSB, I had pretty neutral handling before on stock wheels and tires. Any suggestions to gain back some oversteer on this setup?

Viperoni · 01-15-2014, 07:56 PM

Some toe out in the front and/or more camber (something around 1/8" toe out and -1.5*)

You can also increase spring stiffness or sway bar stiffness in the rear, along with getting the toe close to zero, while still staying slightly toe-in.

Love the look ...really dig the 16 front and 17 rear just looks awesome unique.
