    My 2005 Prius I bought last fall came with a new set of Goodyear Fuelmax tires. I've found them to work fine even in a Maine winter on my 400' icy driveway. I just wonder how others have found them and what tire pressure I should run them at.

    I'm very happy with mine. This is the first set of had other than the Integrity's. I still keep them at 42 front/40 rear. They do seem to make the ride alittle stiffer than the Integrity's though.

    For best FE pump them up to the max sidewall pressure at a minimum.

    I run 40/38, the same as I did with the OEM Intergrities. Although they are rated at a higher max pressure, so you could go higher.
