Pick Up a 2020 Limited Trim Prius Few Questions

The sales brochure (PDF) says 17-inch wheels are standard on the Limited grade, but 15-inch wheels are available as part of the Premium Convenience Package, which also includes the moonroof.

The government’s Uniform Tire Quality Grading system evaluates treadwear, temperature resistance, and traction, but not noise, ride quality, or handling characteristics.

If you want Toyota mats, the lowest prices are from dealers selling online. The list price for the rubber floor mats (PT908-47190-20) is $169, but a dealer near me sells them for $116 or so, plus shipping and tax; see parts.toyota.com for part numbers and list prices for other accessories.

 

You may have Dunlop ENASAVE 01 A/S at UTQG: 540 A B

The 'best' tires in your size that are Low Rolling Resistance are Continental TrueContact Tour at UTQG: 800 A A

in Europe, there are grades for how LRR a tire is, but not in the US. Tire Rack does competitive reviews, but remember they are trying to sell tires.

Also, they may well be driving a different size, I found my 16" Michelins on my v to be quite different than my previous 15" on my Gen 2.

 

With the Premium Convenience Package (moonroof), the 15" wheels are one-piece, with no inserts, a positive thing in my opinion.

Entune isn't the best infotainment, for sure. Have you read about being able to project current weather radar images onto the navigation map? I think I did, but haven't been home to try on my vehicle. Maybe there will be an update to Carplay and Android Auto, someday.

Another app that may be worth learning about is Toyota Remote Connect. It seems to have a remote start function, among others, which can be useful for some folks.

 

The 15" wheels are the more fuel efficient option, the more comfortable one, and same-spec cars will out-accelerate one with 17".

The 17" benefit of lower sidewalls comes into play in areas where twisty-turny roads are the norm - it will out-handle the 15", but in Texas - with your roads - you may have got the right option for your area.

 

The low profile tires were uncomfortable on my 2009 touring edition. 195.45/16. Replaced with 215.50/16, much better on the bumps and corrected the speedometer!

 

I’m a big fan of smaller wheels for ride quality considerations. The only thing I don’t like about our 15s as compared to the 17s is that the entire package to my eyes looks more pleasing with the 17s, due to their being lower profile.
