Question 14" alloy + oem tires or 15" new set?

Hi forum. i'm a newbie and recently got my baby yaris 08.

i want to get alloy rims for my baby but don't want to spend thousands on that. so i'm debating between 14" rims and reuse the oem tires and 15" rims and wheels.

is it kinda stupid just to switch the oem 14" steelie to alloy? any thoughts?

its frickin hard to find good 14" alloys....and the price of them is only like 10$ cheaper per rim than 15's....but then youd have to get 15" tires too

are you in nova scotia?

check kijiji.ca under rims/tires....theres lots of stuff on there

myself, im gonna stick w/ 14" steelies for another year and get some 15's or 16's in 09
