    Hi
    Sadly today is the worst day.I broke my phone screen then after and hour I hit curb with my driver side tire.my tire is completely flat and the plastic guard came out.Since these tire are new can I just replace one tire or I have to replace both the tire even if they are new.Can you recommend best all weather tire for Prius.where do I buy the black splash guard ?

    If the tires are brand new you should be able to replace just the one. If you are referring to mud guards check Amazon for a set of 4 from a Toyota dealer selling at a discount. If you just need the one you can try Ebay.

    +1 If they are new, match the replacement to the existing set and you will be good to go.

    Yeah, new tires, just replace the one. The rim looks untouched?

    Can you take/post a picture of the other side?

    This is a quasi aftermarket item I think?
