My prime advanced dropped on Blitz coilovers

Any advantage of going with 17” vs just getting new gunmetal 15” rims?

 

I also like larger rims but only up to a point. As the rim gets larger, the tire gets thinner and I personally find that dropping below a 50 aspect ratio (maybe 45 as an absolute min) makes the car look awkward and imbalanced. 55 is my sweet spot...

A 205/50/17 tire would work fine on a Prius from a size perspective and in my opinion would still look pretty well balanced.
I'm currently using 205/55/16's which I like the look of.
BUT, I'll be the first to admit that this is a poor economic choice. These tires are more expensive than the stock 195/65/15, they weigh more and and I'm pretty sure the rolling resistance is higher so I'm definitely costing myself some mileage.

 

What size tires do you have?

 

Nice, how does road noise compare to the stock 15"

 

Any issues with the radar cruise control or any of the safety items on the Prius due to the lowered ride height? Did you have to go to the dealership to have them recalibrated?

 

Awesome! Thank you for the update! It appears my next modification will be some Tein coilovers with EDFC...

 

nice ride. Your wheels are 17x9 - what's the offset?

 

+1 on offset on the rpf1’s. Car looks great man!
