    According to Advanti's website, The 15x7 storm is 4x100, which does not fit the Prius. Only the 17 inch. Too bad, I like them but want to stick with 15 inch.

    why stick with 15"? the oem size tire is actually too small for the speedo to be accurate, I got 215/55r16's on 16x7 motegi traklites, and the speedo seems to be dead on with those radar signs that say "your speed is __". with LRR tires, I've gotten 55mpg hwy, so no mpg hit.

    Hmm.. Thanks for the info :) I'm a fan of the Traklites for sure, but haven't seen them in the 16 inch in awhile. Just 17 & 18.

    I would be more concerned about the odometer being accurate. The speedometer reads high by design.

    I hope that Toyota isn't so lame that the odo and speedo aren't calibrated together. but with all the speed cameras and cops around, I want my speedo accurate
