Toyota Vios 1.3 J with 17 wheels?

[IceTrigger]

Hi Everyone,

I would like to seek for your comments and suggestions about the idea of putting a 17 Rims on a Toyota Vios 1.3 J 2007 model.

Is it healthy?

Plus if 17 is a big NO then what would be the "best" size for that model?

It would help me a lot because im still in the process of deciding what to get.

Thanks a lot guys. I would appreciate your comments.

Yep, the 17's would fit. ;) You could even drop it a lil' more.

But if your vios J is the pre-facelifted one and it's silver or red it looks nice if it's paired with the OEM 15's of the high end 1.5G. ;)

Pair it more with some black side mouldings.

Thanks for that quick reply sir.

Its a 2007 model.

Given that 17 is still ok, Will it affect my handling, speed and is it still ok to have 4 people inside your vehicle? I heard that some guys are having problem putting in too much weight on a 1.3J Vios with a 17 Rims

thanks

Not healthy.

Ride quality will suffer.

Acceleration will suffer

Fuel economy will suffer.

Stick with 15s.

agree... i have a different car but i changed from 15's to 17's and the car suffered in all aspects. especially in terms of acceleration and ride quality. even if i lost money returning to 15's, im much happier with the feel of the car. stick with 15's IMO

Ah 2007, yung OEM 1.5G rims na nga lang. Or yung sa 1.5S

Thanks for that awesome advices. At first I was also hesitant on the idea of having a 17 wheels on a 1.3J Vios. But when I saw the "car show" a few months back, specifically at SM Megamall, I saw some of the "Vios 1.3J" wearing 17 rims. It looks really cool but at the same time I was having second thoughts on its performance having that "Big Rims" on it.

Anyway I guess we really have to decide what is the "real" purpose of our car, is it for display or for speed.

Lastly, I would like to cut it down a little bit.

How about 16 rims on a 1.3J Vios 2007 model??

Once again I would really appreciate your comments and suggestions.

Thanks

Er. It's just 15's OEM or 17's aftermarket for me.

15's Vios S OEM or any 17's aftermarket rims.

OEM 15's ...
