    I bet they're probably the same as the ones that HubCapMike sells.

    Your brakes are going to heat up and warp your rotor, your stock mags look fine and move plenty of cooling air for that rotor.

    WWJDO8, your brakes are rarely used much due to the electrical regen braking of the Prius.

    I'm going to take a risk and try ordering a single hubcap from them... to replace my existing one after I slid into a curb :(

    I'll let you guys know if its the same product at a cheaper price or not!
