In this Video I show you the modifications I have done to my gen 3 (2010-2015) Prius. All of the things you see in the video (except for the tint) cost less than $500 to do to the Prius and it transformed the car.

You saved me from putting the scion wheels on same as the Subaru, I got lucky for 2 months I was looking for Prius 5 wheels and someone just posted a set of the charcoal chrome polished ones for only $230 I paid him $180! That was very smart and helpful telling people about the spacer

You have the tire on backwards - those are directional tires and the one you showed should go on the other side. Hopefully they mounted 2 in each direction at the tire shop :-D

Looks GREAT!! Never thought of Suburu rims.. I own a 4th gen, HAVE 17's but want sportier ones. Just because it's a Prius doesnt mean we can't make our's all unique! Nicely done! One guy commented that they may be directional... It'll have an arrow on the side wall if they ARE.. It DID look like the sidewall tread was pointed the wrong way.

For less than $500: remove wheel cover, add preferred wheel paint. I never knew those black alloys were the stock wheels hiding under wheel covers. Those covers are there to reduce drag, though......no?

Why the hell does everyone out there want to put big ass rims on small vehicles? I can never figure that out. You can't have any sidewall on your tires when you do that which means you get to feel every bump in the road that much more and to top it off they are much more fragile since there is no sidewall to absorb sudden impacts. Also changing anything that requires lifting a vehicle or adding spacers is just wrecking the rest of the vehicle because it wasn't designed for that.

Because I spend at least 30 hours behind the wheel every single week. AT LEAST. I think given the amount of time I spend driving my vehicle and the fact that I do as much of my own maintenance as possible to keep costs down that I might actually know a thing or two you complete asshat

He has no idea (even if he thinks he does). When you change the tires size (diameter, width/height ratio) it throws your speedometer off. "Up-sizing, or installing a taller tire, will lead to a speedometer reading that is slower than your actual speed. This is because a taller tire will have a larger overall circumference, which will cause it to travel more distance per revolution than the original equipment tire."

@howardkerr8174 5 жыл бұрын
@@SirSmikle I didn't put taller tires on a car that I own, but the gearing was changed. As a result, I have found that when the speedometer says 38 mph I am actually doing 45. At about 50, I am doing about 60, and the discrepancy WIDENS as speed increases. In my case, I believe that when the speedometer says 60 that I am doing better than 70....nearly 75 mph.

I love my 2012 prius here in the netherlands. Great car. And also great for this country with expensive gas prices. But if i lived in the states? Why would i drive a prius? Gas is so cheap in the states. In euro’s and liters .: €1,80 for one liter in the netherlands. €0’80cents in america for one liter. So why drive a eco car there?
