    I’ve been looking at all the Scion TC take offs available and think it’s time I changed out my stock wheels for these.
    My questions are:
    Are they a direct swap?
    Most say they have a 45 offset, is this the same as the ’06 Prius offset?
    I’ve read about the tire pressure thingy and am OK with either having to swap out my thingies or leaving the Scion ones in and re-programming.
    Thanks for your help
    Robert

    Hello Robert.. Yes, the Scion TC wheels/tires are a direct replacement for the Prius with no modifications necessary to make them fit.

    They look great and are reasonably inexpensive to purchase but the down side is that you should expect a 10-15 percent milage hit.

    Hope this helps...

    The "Toyota" center caps are a direct fit into the Scion rims too.
