Paint looks awesome but from the picks the wheels look to be 14's, tires should be pretty cheap! Fwiw I added 17's to my old CR-Z which were 1" larger, the width was 1" wider and the tires were 30mm's wider and my mileage was still great, did mostly highway driving too, so never really took advantage of the hybrid system.
IMO the wheels really look too small for the car from the profile pics.

The tires are 14's.
Oh how I wish they would have at least had 15's.
I think I'll get my mileage out of these tires first which won't take long being I avg. about 600 miles per week including weekends , that way I can bargain shop, thinking 16's would look great, as I said before I saw someone who posted the same car with 17's and man totally different look but I think they'd be just a tad to large, rubbing.
I'd buy a used set if I found a bargain , they don't have to be perfect because I'll be painting them black anyway.
My 08' RAV4 came with 17's, I'd like to slap on some 20's but that's when the tire cost goes way up.
A while back I saw a Camero with looked like 22's, can't say enough times how bad it looked, crazy man.
As one said here, wheels is what makes a car look good, I totally agree.
Back to my little car.....
I was so surprised how well it road and drove on the test drive, going into the drive I told the salesperson that I didn't feel this was the car for me but I was wrong.
It rides very well, just don't hit a pot hole, the small springs can't handle it.
When I'm going down the road I feel like I'm in a much larger car, when I come out of it I smile and think, wth. Lol
The steering is extremely good, it's electric aid steering, no pump, weird but it does the job, even if it was to go out I could still steer the car with one hand, curb weight of the car is only 2750 pounds.
One feature I like is I can slow the car down using the engine, on the gear shift there's a "B" and thought , what is this for, I took off in "B", didn't shift, after reading it's a breaking aid.
It says to use it if going down steep hills and let it coast, that way you don't have to ride the break, pretty cool, another thing it's good for is let's say I'm going down the road and someone pulls out in front of me, I could break and also use the engine break to really stop the car.
There's more to this car than meets the eye. Lol
I was concerned about safety, what if I crashed it?
There's 7 air bags in the front, one in front if your knees, a rolled bar in case you roll it over and two beams of some kind that goes across the car on both sides in case of a side impact, like being in a cage of some type , it scored 37 out of 39 on crash testing.
Just those little wheels that kills me. Lol
