    Sorry for bother but can I run 195 65 tires on a 2008 Prius? Current summer tires are 185 65 but I can pickup some snow tires that have lots of tread left that are 195 65. I am just not sure if there are issues running larger tires other than speedometer will be off.

    Yes you won't notice the speedometer being off they'll be no rubbing done it a million times All four tires need to be the same size If one is a 60 instead of a 65 your ABS VSC traction control will flash and go berserk and it will be very hard to maintain 55 60 miles an hour
