Funny you mention this Johnny. I replaced the Ingegrity's on my wifes RX-300 with G/Y Assurance Comfort Treads. Love'em for her vehicle and no noticable MPG drop as I have read that others are experiencing.
Were yours Comfort Treads? I ask, because my neighbor recently bought a new RAV4 and it came G/Y Assurance but, nowhere on the tire did it say Comfort Treads like our does, we both looked at the sidewall, and nothing although, the tread is identical. His may have been the new "H" rated Assurance!
My buddy was looking at the G/Y Assurance Fuel Max but there are hihger rated tires in that catigory(on TR)

If fuel efficiency is not a concern, that I would go with Michelin Primacy MXV4.
Yes, these are the type of tires that he is looking at and MPG is a top priority which is the reason for the Prius. If there is a person that can get the estimated EPA Fuel Economy rating out of a Prius, it's my buddy. He drives slooooooooooooow! And even he says that he can't quite get the top MPG out of the Prius.
Thank You All, for your comments and recomendations. I'll post again when he makes his choice. Alot will be based on price.
