    Hello there! New to the group, new to the Prius world. When my son's Fusion was totally by an inattentive driver, the best car I could find to replace it was my trusty 2013 Venza Limited. I LOVE that car, but when I saw a 2018 Prius Prime Plug-In Advanced on a lot near my house, I was interested. I feel like he has my "mom" car and I have his "sporty" car, but I'm loving it! All I need to do is pick out a new set of wheels, and it will feel like mine. Care to help me decide? Mine is the first picture (I've removed the hubcaps since). The "visualizer" does not know about the door detail.

    Will you still like those very open wheel patterns as much once your brake calipers and rotors start to look kind of rusty and gnarly?

    That is an excellent point, ChapmanF. I've looked at quite a few pictures online, and every one of them look like they just installed the wheels after thoroughly cleaning their rotors.
