Tires/Rims for stock 2010 Toyota Prius - Toyota Yaris Forums

jrjrdinh · 10-15-2009, 04:07 PM

I purchased it in June '09. Yeah I like it a lot, it looks so much better than the old one! The old one looked like its for old people -_-, the new one is similar but looks much sleeker.

As for a Yaris, what wheel size do you guys use? Do you guys have any like interior mods you did like lighting or something? I'm really interested in getting rims.

I know Prius isn't exactly fast, but I sure do want to make it look really cool!

not to be rude, but a Prius is 5 lugs, we are 4. Just something to remember.

just more information for the Prius owner. Every bit of info helps guys :)

What do you guys mean five lugs, as in five passengers?

Kioshi · 10-15-2009, 07:22 PM

the bolts to hold the wheels. You have five bolts as opposed to 4 bolts like the Yaris has...

jrjrdinh · 10-15-2009, 07:40 PM

Oh ok, so that means when purchasing a rim to make sure it can support five bolts? Interesting, even when they are both the same tire size.

What are the benefits of having a bigger/smaller tire? Also if I want to get a bigger tire is there any adjustments I need to make to the car?

if you are thinking about wheels for your Prius, please consider these wheels...

SSR Hybrid <---linky

because they are super dope

edit: and i would not go with anything bigger than a 16" wheel

you can ask Cali Yaris aka Garm, I believe he is able to get SSR wheels at a good price.
