    The silver alloy wheels look better than the black alloy wheels with the 2012 wheel covers.

    Agreed. I like it a lot. Almost better than the PIP wheels.

    I would also like to put the FR-S wheels on my 2010 Prius IV, Can someone explain to me what the deal is with its compatibility? Why are spacers needed? Can it be installed with no spacers at all? Thanks a lot!

    Added a Scanguage II just behind the steering wheel on the dash of my Prius III. Installation was super simple.

    Am somewhat of a data nerd so wanted to see more info than just what the default dash displays reveal. With the cold weather right now I'm particularly interested in the ICE coolant temp so I know when the heater can be turned on without causing the ICE to turn on. I have the heated seats and that warms one up quick enough to go a few mins without cabin heat. Sitting in my driveway experimenting after a drive it seems like 120F is the cutoff point. When the coolant dropped below 120 the ICE kicked on until the coolant temp reached 130 then it shutoff again.

    They have a 48mm backspacing and the design doesn't leave enough clearance for the caliper. That is how it was explained by the two members who have installed those wheels.
