Dude, that is tight! Keep us posted on mileage. I will probably end up buying a lightweight set for my car. I can't stand the hit I took with my heavy tires and wheels. BTW, I like your color better with those wheels.

Thanks Mike

I'll probably take a small hit to milage because the tires are heavier than I was told. They weigh 21lbs. The General Exclaim UPH tires were only 18lbs and would have had me at the same weight as stock. Now I am about 4lbs heavier than stock.

Dude, that looks great! Glad to see more and more peeps are moving their PRIUS on to aftermarket rims.

Wow, what a nice looking combo. That red really pops! I like it much better than the darker red of the '04 and '05 model years.

Thanks!

It is the darker red of the '04-'05. It just pops when its all Zaino'd up. I parked next to a Barcelona red Prius last week and the difference was quite striking. The '06 seemed much more subued. Could be the wax though

There are a ton of Prius in my arae and none of them have aftermarket gear and only a few have tinted windows so I had to do something. I mod the hell out of my others cars and this one had to have at least a lil something.

Yeah, I'm an old Gear Head, that is used to tricking out cars. The Prius offered so little to do (no Borla on this car, I'm afraid...)

At least with the rims/tires you can do something, and tinting...

lookin good.

HA! you had me fooled for a second. I actually thought it'd be possible to get 20"s on a Prius for a sec.

Nah, then it would look as stupid as those Tahoes on 26s. Like a damn covered wagon!
