    Hi . . . We just took delivery of our Prius III a couple of days ago and at the risk of asking a question that's already been addressed (I checked threads and didn't see anything covering this) I was wondering if a Gen II stock wheel would fit on our Gen III? Looks to be the same bolt pattern and offset per the description. The snow tires mounted on the wheels are 185/65R15 Michelin Ice-X Snows with 9k miles and the package includes TPMS. The Miata tire size calculator program puts the 185s real close in all areas to the 195s we have on there now so the real question is whether the Gen II wheels are compatible with Gen III.

    Thanks in advance for any help/guidance you can provide and, again, sorry if this has been addressed somewhere else.

    Great forum and great source of info. Looking forward to continuing in it.

    RR

    Looks like the GII wheel/tire combo will be fine.
