    I’m looking to add some performance to my Gen 3 Plug in. I found a set of rims that are inexpensive and only 17lb! I’m wondering if the 38mm backspace is going to rub? My plan is to use lowering springs, Tein struts, and sway bars to make it a bit sportier. Nothing too crazy as its my daily.

    Save you money and use it towards a used Prius Prime.
