What to check before changing tire sizes
If you’re considering a tire size change or a wheel upgrade, keep these factors in mind to avoid fitment or safety issues.
- Overall diameter: A different diameter affects speedometer accuracy and may impact ABS/traction systems.
- Clearance: Ensure there is no rubbing against fenders, suspension components, or brake calipers at full steering lock or suspension travel.
- Wheel width and offset: The chosen tire must fit the wheel width and maintain proper offset to avoid contact with the suspension or body.
- Load index and speed rating: Tires should meet or exceed the vehicle’s original load and speed ratings for safety and warranty considerations.
- Inflation and warranty: Use the recommended inflation pressures and be aware that aftermarket sizes can affect warranty coverage.
When in doubt, consult a tire professional or your Toyota dealer to confirm compatibility for your specific vehicle configuration.
How to read the tire size on your Yaris
Tire size is printed on the sidewall of the tire. For example, a size written as 175/65R14 means: 175 mm width, 65% aspect ratio (sidewall height is 65% of the width), radial construction, and a 14-inch diameter wheel. Use the numbers exactly as printed on your current tires for the most reliable match.
Summary
For a 2007 Toyota Yaris, the typical stock sizes are 175/65R14 on base models with 14-inch wheels and 185/60R15 on models with 15-inch wheels. Always verify the exact size on the door placard and in the owner's manual. If you plan to change wheel sizes or go aftermarket, consider overall diameter, clearance, load index, and speed rating, and consult a professional to ensure proper fitment and safety.
