Wouldn't that be counterproductive to owning a prius?

That's the point? Or would be if it were me.
Now if it had a fartcan on it too, that'd be PERFECT.

It would be incredible to do a diesel swap on a prius and roll coal.

Put a lift kit and some mudders on it. I can see it now.

Only thing putting me off is the insane price of a used one, and the horrible horrible interior of them. It's like sitting inside an empty refrigerator. That's been turned off for a few weeks. And is stating to stink.

Technically, stretch might be BEST on a Prius. The whole idea of the Prius is to reduce drag, weight, and resistance to counteractive forces and increase efficiency. The Prius' stock tires are specifically made to reduce rolling resistance. Whereas 300HP FWD's w/ stretch is a beyond-stupid idea due to the reduced contact patch - it makes PERFECT SENSE on a Prius.
Still looks stupid tho.

It doesn't make sense when it's on big heavy chromed wheels.
Also, they have a very high offset, and thus are poking out past the bodywork, which will add drag.

So bad, those skinny puny tires they normally have are intended specifically for fuel savings....like the whole econobox itself is.

Has to be. With different ratios than the car thinks it has it has to screw it all up.

That is one seriously impressive road grade.

Is that some negative camber I see?
Can't wait to see video of this Prius "carving it up in the canyons, yo."

This is true - I was just speaking specifically about the stretch. Proper offset and lightweight wheels would obviously enhance the benefit.
Or you could just leave it stock!
