    I'm just curious. My Prius has small chrome centers that are nearly flush with the surface of the wheel with no paint. I've only seen a few Prius up close but I believe they all had the same plain centers.

    I bought a second set of wheels that are identical except the chrome center "button" is raised maybe 1.5 inches and has a red painted groove around the Toyota symbol. I wonder if this was a running change or did I get wheels from a pre-production Prius.

    Comments?

    We have almost 600 miles and seem to average around 47 mpg so far. This would be a fine car even if it was not a hybrid but it is and that is frosting on the cake. I drove a friends Sienna and I was so dissapointed when I would let up on the gas and I didn't get any regen! After driving a Prius nothing else makes sense. :D

    Wheel Centers

    Mine is new (build in Dec.) and it has the plain wheel centers.

    I too am averaging 47 mpg. And I'm increasingly able to drive in stealth mode. It's a lot of fun watching the car get this great mileage.
