Yesterday I broke down (due to cost) and put P18565R14 Michelin Hydroedge Tires on my Classic Prius. After reading everything I could find, this seemed the best choice as an upgrade to the horrible OEM tires.
Questions:
1. During my research I was concerned about comments on this tire in snow. I don't expect snow tire performance, but I am interested in comments from those with winter driving experience with these tires on classic Prius?
2. What tire pressures do you run in your classic Prius?
3. What mileage / speedometer changes do you notice?
Comments:
I have driven all of 25 miles so far. The car feels glued to the road compared to the old ones. Handling is certainly different. The tires needed fewer balance weights than the originals. Also needed more air the day after mounting.
