YOKOHAMA 195/60R15 Tyre Prices

Nice tyre with good handling and good fuel consumption

After lots of research on appropriate Prius tyres, a Japanese tyre on a Japanese car felt like the right way to go (even if Toyota doesn't provide them on new cars). First purchase through tyresales.com.au -- very happy with price, choice, their website and email follow-up, etc.

I was looking for tyres with a combination of Low Rolling Resistance, Good Wear Characteristics, and Good Handling Response. An excellent place to look for a particular tyre size is TyreSales, because of their diverse range. I came across these Yokohamas' with those exact claims to fame so I thought I'd give them a go. They went on a 2004 Toyota Prius, and from experience I knew that tyres had an impact on fuel mileage on this car. So far these tyres have displayed excellent fuel economy, great handling (for their profile/size), much better than the Michelin Energy that they replaced, and were a cheaper option. I'm not saying they'd be great for track days but for our roads they well and truly exceed their requirements. LRR tyres generally have good wear characteristics and I don't think these will be any different.
