New owner here of a 2026 XSE Premium PHEV so I apologize if some of my questions have been asked and answered. First off can someone confirm the wheel specs for the 19s are 19x6.5 +40 offset and 17s are 17x6.5 +40 offset? The 19s on the Prius as we all know with those oddball wheel specs tire options are very limited. The few AS tires offered in 195/50/19 are pretty trash although Michelin does make the X-Ice Snows in this size. I've had experience with the X-Ice Snows and they are excellent tires and well suited for my driving environment so if I mount X-ICE Snows on the 19s I'll need a second set of wheels. For a second set of wheels I'd be looking at a slightly wider wheel in 18s or 17s so I have more tire options. If I go wider wheels and tires I am concerned about strut clearance does anyone know how much strut clearance I have over the stock spec wheels if I go wider? Again I'm not out to slam it or turn it in to a race car just looking for more tire options if possible. I've also been researching the TPMS. Am I able to buy TPMS at the tire shop and clone them to the car? I know I did that with my wife's old.Nissan and that worked flawlessly. TIA
On Fast EV's website (fastco.ca), when I select 17" wheels, it lists 17x7.5" as a direct fit. For example: Fast Wheels | Canada’s Leading Direct Fit, Performance Alloy Wheels
