has anyone put rims on their Prius?
how much does it affect the MPG?

does anyone know how much the stock rims weigh?

cause my mother is thinking of getting some 17" rims that weigh 16lbs.

Some people I see put the 17" Scion TC wheels on their Prius. They claim a 4mpg loss and are averaging 45mpg. If you ask me it's still good. However, if you drive it daily that 4mpg loss can add up.

Here's another Prius that looks interesting:
