Apr 262006

Prius 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 13,000 miles
Bulges have appeared in the sidewalls of two of the four Goodyear potenza tires on our 2005 Toyota Prius. I can provide photos. The tires were maintained by having them rotated and pressure checked at 5,000-mile intervals by the Toyota dealer. The car has been driven only on paved streets and roads. Current mileage on the car is 13,000. I have elected to replace all four tires with michelins.
