    Doesn't matter. Someone hit the corner of the Gen 2 and the taillights cracked. So as far as I'm concerned, they're gonna crack unless they're high mounted and not anywhere close to the bumper.

    The 3rd gen 17" rims Toyota did right. That single handedly got us to buy the Canadian Touring.

    I don't care much for plastic wheel covers over utilitarian alloy rims.

    I totally agree. The more I look at it the more I hate it. I may hold out for the Prime or for the C-HR.

    I think they had 55PSI pressure too - they seem lower profile
    I think Prius v has the nicest Prius wheels:

    Yes. They look similar to the Prius plug in (first iteration) rims too. Those can be used on reg Prius, obviously.

    Understand. The PIP rims are 15", but similar appearance.

    Trade in for two twos. One is never enough. Spend the cash now while it is still worth something.:ROFLMAO:

    I do not know what I was drinking last night but I see upside down dogs. And dead sheep on a piano bench.

    They have the same stinkin tires! At least they did when I was shopping back in February. Same tire, same price. About 90 bucks? Don't worry about it. You won't need tires for 5 years or so.

    I think you should buy a Ford F150 pickup.

    The ECO did have different tires when I was shopping and comparing last week anyways.... Maybe this is a new toyota phenomenon??

    And no don't get a truck. I am dealing with the pain of 12-13 mpg currently with a truck. No fun...$$$!!:cry:

    Can anyone vouch for the cloth seats and their quality on the Two?
