Friends: 59 | Re: post pics of your prius w/ rims!! Are you going to move TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) in it? I heard the TPMS in the OEM wheels will fit in the Volk Eco Drive. Can you confirm if TMPS fit in TE37 as well? |

I hope the mileage would not be that bad (I'm currently using touring wheels) ... the weight of the wheels w/ the tires is about 19 lbs each... | |

Friends: 0 | Re: post pics of your prius w/ rims!! mrplease, I really like your wheels!! I have a white Prius & preferred those you have, but I probably won't update anytime soon. Do you notice any change in mileage? Good looking, but I am old school & mine look ok at 90mph at midnight. Ha! |

Friends: 0 | Re: post pics of your prius w/ rims!! Nothing fancy, inexpensive set of 16X7 Motegi MR7 42mm offset. I've been running a set of 205/55 16 Goodyear TripleTreds since May 2005. Mileage wasn't affected too much. In Summer our '05 gets 50 to 56 mpg and 46 to 48 in Winter, pretty much rural commuting with little city duty. Recently I bought a Vibe and donated the new OEM GY RS-A tires to replace the worn TripleTreds on the Prius. Much softer ride, but less linear steering. Will see how Summer mileage develops with these tires.  Last edited by B. Roberts; 04-01-2009 at 07:54 PM. |
