Hey ya'll, just joined to say whats up. I have a 2008 Toyota Prius white with gray interior. Only mods are B&G Lowering Springs for a whopping 1 inch drop but oh so nice handling and as of Wednesday, 17 inch Scion tC wheels and Bridgestone tires that I bought from a member on here. Stock were 15 inch on 185/65/15. These tires are within 1/10th of the same size as stock overall diameter so speedo is still pretty much right on. Next up is a prototype body kit sometime this year.
I'll try and take some more pictures today in the sunlight.

Wait... you replaced the OEM wheels with a larger, heavier wheel? Doesn't that kind of miss the whole point of buying a Prius?

I was thinking the same exact thing. Now some lightweight rally rims, that would be awesome.

Good luck with the body kit, post pics when it's up.

Well, the rims are off for now. Mileage drop on this last tank was 40MPG mixed driving down from 47 I was getting before.

I really want to see a nice big HKS High Power exhaust on a Prius......angle out and everything,that would be super hot.........extremely worthless but hot.
