    Hi all,
    I've had snow tires on my Prius C for ~1 week and the Tire Pressure Warning light has been on for a day. Called the dealership and they said it's normal.

    The light will come on after a few days. The winter tires don't have sensors (it's an extra $400 for them to put on) so the light will be on all winter until the original tires are put back on.

    Just an FYI.
