I bought my 2005 Prius last September and had some problem
climbing up my driveway when it is covered with snow last
winter. I am considering equipping it with brizzaks but not
sure what grade and size and what impact it would have on
the mileage.
thanks,
pac

I face the same situation but don't think snow tires will help me. I can
walk right up it with the factory tires when it is covered with snow but
have a problem when it is clean but covered with frost. In that situation
the snow tires might get less traction than the factory ones.
