She says winter makes no difference to them

Really. So winter affects every other car on the road but hers. Fair enough

Yep, do not shoot the messenger.

Total nonsense. In my prius, I get 60 MPG most of the year, but only 50 MPG winter. Deep south mind you. Pure city driving.

Look, I'm finished arguing with you fellas, it should be apparent that I don't necessarily disagree with you, but she went trough this with the other one and it went right back to what it was getting before the tire swap (it has some kind of bridgestones on it) My uncle had one and he agrees with her. I'll report back after they are changed on what the mileage does.

Please do, I have been following this thread. We have to replace the OEM tires on my wife's 2010 Prius this years some time, and I am interested in these results.

I understand totally. Thats why I said not to be rude.

my point is there is physics so she has to be wrong.

Just dont say that to her
