    I'm curious why you want to go so wide. I assume it must be for appearance because the Prius doesn't need that wide of a wheel for performance.

    just a thought. i've been hooked on those JDM style stance with the wide staggered wheels on the back. just wanted to know if that size of wheel would fit in our cars.

    Are you lowering it? That could affect fitment and offset choice. :)
