Prius Wheel Covers, Popping Off

Nice looking wheels. What make are they and what was the cost?

 

How would you dismount and remount tires from rims DIY? Or, I guess, just for replacing TPMS and valves, you do not have to do that? Still it need to be re-registered to ECU. Great price, no matter.

It is MB ICON 15 X6.5 5-100.00/114.30 38 purchased from Discount Tire Direct.

Currently on order. It is $65/each but with sales discount and rebate, you can knock $100 off from total price. So final cost is $160 for set of 4 plus $45 installation kit (lug nuts and hub rings). This came out to be cheaper than steel rims I was initially looking for. And shipping is Free. I ordered them with Xice3 snow tires which was price matched to lower than listed price to $70/each mounted and balanced Free. Grand total cost after all the rebates came to be ~$450. Can't beat this price anywhere else,online or local shops.

 

Precisely! I don't have the specialised equipment necessary for changing tyres, particularly when dynamically re-balancing.

 

I lost one wheel cover after owning the car for about four months. I know that I drove through a deep pot-hole at the exit curb-cut from an unlighted parking lot -- and felt thankful that I did not destroy a tire.

The alloy wheel looked so nice that I did not notice the wheel cover was gone until my spouse pointed it out several days later. (So, I assume it popped off when I hit the pot-hole, but I can't be sure.)

I bought a used replacement on eBay which had a small area suffering from minor curb burn. The seller described it as such and, because I knew that it's inevitable that my wheel covers will get scratched up parallel parking in the city, I was pleased with the bargain price.

I have not lost any wheel covers since that one time.
