So I plan to drop my ride with the Tein Htechs and get some 17s. MB Weapons or Drag DR-38s. Thoughts?
I like the look of the top one, but I'd lean towards the lighter one. If you're the same type, these might interest you: Advanti storm s1 Storm S1 Matte Black | Advanti Racing 14.1lbs per wheel for 17x7. I'd have gone this direction if I went with 17s.
I didn't end up going with the Advantis, so I don't have a pic myself, but one forum user has pictures of his 15in set here on this post: Show me your C | PriusChat If you're asking for a pic of what I went with, I chose Konig Heliums due to the 60% relative cost over the Advanti Storm S1, and stuck with 15in for ride quality concerns. Unfortunately I couldn't find the Konig Heliums in 17in, so it was never really an option. Dominantly I liked the relative price for weight with the Storm S1s when compared to other options. If I was willing to trade a bit of ride quality and get 17s, I'd have gone with the Advantis, hence why I thought I'd bring it up.
I was under the impression that earlier models were 15x5, later ones 15x6.5, and the C4 at 16x??, however I can't find any links or proof so I'm apparently full on wrong. Unfortunately I don't have my steel wheels anymore to check. If it's any value, wheel-size.com has the following info for the C ◦ Bolt pattern 4x100 ◦ Diameter: 15.0'' - 16.0''; ◦ Width (inches): 5 - 6.5; ◦ Offset (mm): 39 - 50. Toyota Prius c 2014 - Wheel & Tire Sizes, PCD, Offset and Rims specs - Wheel-Size.com 15x5 is also confirmed on this thread. http://priuschat.com/threads/prius-c-steel-wheel-specs.105235/ Google full on tells you with a search too Google Sorry for the misinformation.
I was only asking cause I was thinking about picking up rims but need to know if I should go with a 6.5 width or 7 with a drop.
I'm lowered by ~1in all around, and I'm on 15x6.5 wheels with the oem Assurance tires. I don't think going with a 15x7 is THAT different. The guy with the red C on this post Show me your C | PriusChat has the 15x7 Advantis and didn't mention any issues as well.
I'm also looking into getting new rims. What are your thoughts on 15x7.25 30et. What's the perfect offset? I currently have 15x8 25et. The car rides fine untill its full of passengers then the rear scrapes a bit I attached the rim that I'm interested in.
