    Thanks for clarifying, however, the prices on the website i posted seem to be different than the ones posted from the Mossy Toyota parts website ?

    I'm looking at this part in particular
    2010 - 2012 Toyota Prius Plus TRD 17 inch Wheels, PTR20-47010


    the wheels are listed $252 a piece

    2010 Toyota Prius Plus Wheel - Forged Alloy PTR20-47010

    where as Mossy's website have them listed at $349.00 a piece

    They both have the same address. Just guessing but they may be running the online operation as a separate business, which would allow them to be competitive online but still charge retail or close to it for walk in customers or for onsite repairs.

    its not really $252. click buy. then the website will update to the regular price of 295/wheel.

    It is definitely a dealer site then. It is fluent in bait-and-switch.

    $295 is still a decent price, most of the dealarships I've contacted were asking for $340 +

    yes, we should !!!

    I've been wanting to get the Five axis wheels, but after finding out that the 17's are out of production, i'm going back to the 17's Prius Plus wheels :)
