    Decided to do a little something special for the wife, she picked out the wheels and they look better than what I would have picked. She can’t stop admiring her Prius now. Amazing what a little tint and wheels can do for a car. Toying with the idea of a black roof wrap next…

    We went with 215/45R-17 (PIRELLI P7s), the OEM size for the optional 17 inch rims. Pirellis are geared for comfort so very little difference in ride quality. Ride feels practically identical to the 15 inch wheels (a little more road feel but not uncomfortable) and better handling, plus they look great!

    Thanks man

    Thank you! To be honest, I was a bit surprised at how good it looked after putting the wheels on.
