15x7 and 205/55/15's

I bought my mother some 15x7 wheels with 40mm offset and some 205/55/15 kumhos for her 08 yaris sedan. I did some research but I'm still a little worried about fitment. Should they fit ok?

That set-up will fit just fine with stock suspension.

I'm a pimpin. It's my mothers car and she mainly wanted a easy way to change to winter tires every winter. She plans on tinted windows next month.

My mother deserves this since she just had a liver transplant last year because of cancer and is now dealing with lower intestinal cancer now. She's almost done with the Chemo and radiation treatment it looks good that she will be a cancer surviver for a second time. We have been to Johns Hopkins at least a 100 times in the last 2 years. This car get 38 mpg when I drove last to baltimore at 75-80 mph

Before 185/60/15


After 205/55/15

nice...tire makers have brands that work and some that don't and sometimes even the certain size or load/speed rating in a certain style is crap but the rest are fine...
