    Sorka,

    Here is a good thread on tires to get you up to speed:

    http://priuschat.com/forums/gen-ii-prius-modifications/37637-touring-edition-tire-upgrade.html

    And one of the websites listed there in is:

    Tire Size Calculator - tire & wheel plus sizing

    The difference between stock 185/65/15 and replacement 195/60/15 is 1.03% so essentially negligible to MPG calculations.

    Enjoy,
    Chris
