    Any recommendations for replacing tire rims on 2005 prius? One rim has very slight bent. The dealer quoted 440.00 each. Really? It looks like I could order a Toyota rim online for 135.00 but not sure how I know it will be an exact match? Do I have to take the tire off the wheel to find a number? Thanks in advance for your help.

    put a personal WTB (want to buy) ad in the private sales section. Somebody will probably be willing to part with their OEM rims for a cheap price. I sold mine for $30 each.

    The 15 inch rim didn't change from the 2004 thru 2009 model years. There should be many sitting in the junk yards.

    Check some more dealerships too, that price seems out of line. Still, salvage yards are good bet.
