My 2010 With Lexus CT200h F Sport Wheels

Looks really good. Your springs will make it great.

You should also take off that Hybrid emblem and replace it with a F-sport badge. Then replace your front grille with a mesh grille. And add an exhaust with dual tailpipes. Then debadge all the back emblems. Hell, just slap a Lexus badge on there. PriusChat Forums - View Profile: GoldPianoGarden

 

Hey those are nice! How did you score a set of those?

 

For those wheels, that is a screamin' deal :rockon: What would those cost through Lexus? $400 each?

 

They are actually pretty cheap. They run about $199/ea.. I think the nutty weight (28.6lbs) makes them a less than desirable commodity.

They look great on your car! I have a feeling the MPG drop is going to be excessive though.

 

Interesting. The website the ClubLexus folks use was wrong then.

Another chap stated his total freight was 78lbs for all 4 wheels. That doesn't pan out for either the weight they listed or you listed. Any chance you can dig up your shipping invoice or weight a wheel/tire for us?

I ask because a friend may be swapping wheels on his ct F Sport and may cut me a deal on his trident wheels. At 28.6lbs I'd pass but at 21lbs or less I could be interested!

 

Never mind. The numbers the guy posted was shipping charge.

Here is where I found the weight.

2011 CT200h: Wheel - 17 Inch Trident F-Sport - The aggressive trident design adds a sport-racing element and sophistication to your CT's character. Precision engineering balances lightweight aluminum alloy for a high strength-to-weight ratio. Offered

 

what is your average mpg before the rims / how many fill ups? I would be super surprised if you did not see a drop...21lbs or 28lbs either way. Also...what tires did you get?

I like them...looking forward to seeing them with springs. That picture is quite amazing. It appears you have a rain cloud hovering over your car on a sunny day

 

That was a harbinger for bad gas mileage to come.

Seriously though, I think the car looks great with those wheels and since I have the same car I am very interested in the weight and mpg loss. Could you provide more pictures? A full side shot and a shot looking down the body line to observe the wheel offset would be sweet.

 

Sweet, thanks!

 

Very nice!

From what I've been reading about these "mods", mileage doesn't seem to ever drop much. Interesting.

You are making the Prius cool.
This is key, imo, to get more and more people on board.
Kudos.

 

These have a 36mm offset. How does this compare to the Prius 5 and Prius Plus Pkg wheels?

 

Prius Plus Pkg wheels have a 43mm offset, does anyone know the offset of the Prius 5 wheels?

 

Prius Five wheels have a 50mm offset.

Gene weighed his F Sport wheel for me. He subtracted tire weight and came up with 22 lbs so the original claim of 21lbs is likely correct. Very good news.

 

I'm not sure where you got that idea unless a 4mpg drop is not that much to you.
