    Hi
    Unlike the 2010 Prius IV, the 17" wheels are no longer an option. At the time, Goodyear was the tire used. But they looked great even if there was some mileage efficiciency lost.

    I am buying a 2013 Prius Four and the dealership has offered Bridgestone. No I don't know which model but I live in So CA and will not be driving on snow. Of course I'm installing chrome wheels!!

    Any opinion regarding Bridgestone?

    Please don't suggest going out of the dealership as I don't have the time!

    Quick repsonses would really really be appreciated.

    Thanks

    17" wheels where never an option. They came as part of a Model Package. The 2010 Model V came with 17" wheels and Toyo Proxes A20 tires. The newer Prii are designated Models Two, Three, Four and Five. Roman numerals are no longer used for Liftback models. So you are buying a Model Four.

    The OEM Bridgestone Ecopia EP20 15" tires are fine.

    I'm not sure what you are trying to ask regarding 17" tires. Do a search for aftermarket tire recommendations.
