    Be careful, I choose the one with 38 mm offset (40 mm for Toyota one), titanium and aero with 66.1 bore (19.4 lbs). Recently, I got 65.34 mi/gal (3.6 l/100 km) with these wheels with a Prius Limited AWD mostly at 62.14 mi/h (100 km/h).

    Say what? (n)
    Then what's the purpose of buying +$2000 'aero wheels' if there's no 'pay back' ever?

    I am in Canada and, by law, we must have winter tires. I always buy a second set of wheels for winter tire to switch them myself.

    Isn't that specific to a single province? I had understood another province, closest to me, to require them only on certain mountain highways. And was aware of no similar requirements in between.

    It is in Quebec province. These 17 inch wheels are more confortable than 19 inch wheels on rough roads even if i inflate them at 42/40 psi for fuel efficiency (Recommended pressure for 17 inch wheels: 36/35 psi and for 19 inch wheels: 35/33 psi).
