I want my mpg back...
...and now hopefully I'll get it.
After years of forcing the car to push around +sized wheels, I'd decided to return to OE sizing this year and see what happens. Struck a deal with Exiwolfman a while back and picked up these tiny suckers yesterday. Bronze painted OE Prius wheels (don't know what vintage). 14X5.5 clad in 175/65/14 Hero rubber (don't know what those are but they sure run quiet). Setup is 25lbs per corner. 8lbs lighter than my prior 17x7 Enkei PF01s wrapped in Kumho 215/40/17. Should also mention that these are 1.5lbs lighter than the 175/65/14 Goodyear Nordics on OE steelies that just came off for the summer. Now to get my Meagan springs back on to get her squatting some. Crazy rear wheel tuck that I can't do much about. What you see is with 10mm spacers mounted. Eliminating my camber could help a bit I guess.
