I am considering getting another set of wheels to mount winter tires on for my 007 Prius. I have read that Corolla wheels will work. Are there any years that we know will fit? or All of them. And will they take 195/60R tires?

Not sure about Corolla, but I have heard of using Matrix alloys, which should be same as corolla. Tire rack should be able to tell you.

Here is the response mrv gave me on PriusOnline last winter when I posed a similar question. I was looking for wheels for snows, but ended up getting a set of original Prius allows cheap on eBay. PA P You could try giving Ryan at tirefactory.net a call, see if he still has the 15x6" 5x100 steel wheels available (as seen on http://www.tirefactory.net/Specials.htm ) When I had bought some from him last year, they were $60 each but with free shipping. Last I checked he was still offering a discount on Nokian tires to people who identified themselves from a Prius group. Ryan Tire Factory, Inc [email protected] 800-576-1009 (also, note that this is the same wheel as the Matrix and the newer (2003-?) redesign of the Corolla, so even some scrapyards may be a source of inexpensive steel wheels...)

if you're talking about 15" then... the 9th Gen (03-08) will work. The steelies are mounted with 185/65R15 and the alloys (on the S and LE models) are mounted on 195/60R15 so either one should work (esp. since the wheel lugs are the same design I believe). Older Corollas used 14" steelies with wheel covers.
