    I finally got some new tires to complement my lift from Prius Offroad. These are Venom Power Terra Hunter X/T 2 205/65R15. I hadn't seen anyone post pictures of these on a Prius so I thought I would share. I think they're the perfect size. Rugged and bigger than stock but don't look too oversized for the wheel well.

    how did they impact fuel economy? I'm looking for some light offroad capable tires myself right now. Those look like an MPG annihilator.

    Definitely lost some MPGs. Don’t do all-terrains if you’re looking to maximize MPG. But the way I see it is the MPGs will still be a lot better than some other vehicle running all-terrains.

    You've thrown your odometer off significantly with those oversized tires, which will skew the dash-displayed mpg (which is optimistic to begin with, but that's for another discussion):

    It's good to calculate mpg, basically miles divided by gallons, Due to those tires I'd multiply the miles by 825/792:
