I'm assuming you are just talking about 1st and 2nd gear? Or maybe 3rd gear on a less than ideal grippy surface, since the car doesn't have enough power to slide the tail at a high speed.

Also please stop referring to the tires as "prius" tires. They are Summer Grand Touring tires with a W (186mph) speed rating and a 240 wear rating. Just because they're offered as an option for the Prius in EUROPE doesn't mean they're whimpy crap tires

If you want it to grip better on corner exit use a staggered tire set up, with 225, 235, or 245 section width tires in the back instead. Just be aware that under other situations your car will be more prone to understeer.
