Thanks Ryephile. Actually, I'd already looked at Tire Rack, as well as a number of discussions on the topic, and find opinions vary widely....
In what way? Your analogy needs detail. Whether a vehicle is military or even whether it is tracked is not to the point. The point about weight...
It's a common misconception that the more the total weight, the better (as in, "big heavy truck"); and another misconception that tires should be...
What tires did you have on--and why was there a 200 pound weight in the trunk? That doubtless was part of the problem. You could at least have...
Oops! Despite having searched several times before, only just now found F8L's opinion that the alloys are between 15.5 & 16.5 lbs. Still, if...
Does anyone know the weight of the C's alloy 15" wheels? Thanks!
Not mine--as noted, it's a tiger (snow leopard?) *with* the stock three-season Turanzas.
Ditto to the good experiences above--tested my C last night on packed snow and ice, got zero slipping, sliding, or loss of power. Excellent...
Tested my C last night on packed snow & ice, flooring it for a bit and then braking hard enough to slide. It accelerated briskly with zero loss...
I put in a call to two local Toyota dealers' parts depts., including the one where I bought my C4, to ask for a block heater (I know, they're...
One more question about wider tires (195/60/15) for the C: does the width impose a turning resistance that would be problematic for the steering...
Sounds great! How do you like the Ecopias? I'm poised on the brink of ordering some (195/60/15) for my Prius C, and would love to hear more...
Thanks Dan & F8L. Aerodynamics is distinctly a consideration but at the moment I'm busy fretting about the tires rubbing on something (since...
I'm similarly considering wider wheels (Enkei RPF1s in 15/7 with Michelin Energy Saver A/S 195/65/15s) and wonder about fitment with my C with...
Thank you! that does sound a bit heavy. (as a sometime pilot, I'm always thinking weight. And more generally, unsprung weight in particular.)
Hi Automo--where did you get the Scion wheels, what do they weigh, & is the offset correct for the C? Thanks!
Thanks, gorgeous wheels! Could you say where one can get them & for how much, what they weigh, & whether offset is correct? Or any of this?...
The old one, an '82 Tercel, has lasted thirty years. The C is better so should last at least that long. [IMG]
Hi all, my first post: I've been lurking avidly every day for over a year (having been put up to it by my brother, who's crazy about his gen II);...
