I got the black yaris,I am put on the shadow titanium chorme 17" x 7 wheels on ,this is the larger U can go for ,cos the yaris got the ABS ,so it will not affect the dia of the OEMrims size. but U will need to go 4 those lightest forged alloys.cos the R even lighter than the steel rims with hub cap.my 17 inches with tyre inflated is only 12 KG compare to 17 kg on the OEM 15 inches wheel.I did also try on the 18 in" x 7.5 is bit over size cos the 215/35 /18 tyre is little bit stick out of the car ,doesn't look good,but just a try,never do it on U car ,cos its from my 2002 echo.that car got no ABS ,but it slow the car down a lot ,it only looks good.so U can go 4 the 17"X 7 with the 205/45/17 tyre.or if U want wider profile go 4 the 215/javascript:emoticon(':trophy:', 'smid_22')
smilie40/17 ,but it will cost more petrol indeed.

You want about a 35mm offset, they're fairly standard across Toyotas, any aftermarket wheel shop will be able to get you them, they're standard fittings so you won't be paying more for them.   I've 16s, I wouldn't go as far as 17s due to our useless roads but a good set of 16s will really help the handling.   I'll sell you my original 14" alloys ;-)   Jeremy
