I dont knoe much about rims, but I would suggest getting specs from toyota! But 4 lug is 4 lug... Can you at least try them out...take one tire and find out. Im kind of curious to know as well...

First of all, there are two different sizes of 4-lug wheels. The Box takes 4x100.

Height and width should be OK, but the offset may be close. Many people running +42 or higher have run spacers. It may depend on the rim design too, but there is an issue of contact with the rear trailing arm (? don't quote me on that) I think that was where the trouble came up. Check out http://www.onetongarage for a really nice spacer, actually better than a spacer specifically designed for the scions.

BTW, I'm moving this thread to Tread and Butter since it's not a regional thing...

You will need a spacer in the rear to clear the control arm.
