    Not a bad design as an inexpensive 15" alternative to OEM, but they look smaller than factory wheels for some reason.

    Those are some of the best looking 15" wheels I've seen. :rockon:

    Yes, a weight would be nice.

    So that looks like 3 options for 15" wheels that I know of so far...

    1) Take the doofus hubcaps off, then get the Yaris center caps or make your own from electrical box knockout covers - if exposing the hidden wheels affects mileage I'm guessing it's miniscule

    2) Motegi TrakLites - the TrakLites may even increase mileage because they're lighter than stock

    3) These MB Vipers are nice looking - looking for a mileage report!!
