Had a great experience buying my first new set of tires once the stock prius tires were shot. Found a set for less than $450 total shipped and installed locally.
I'd definitely buy some new rims and tires from them if I ever upgrade.

Years ago (back in 1992 or so) a friend of mine's uncle worked at the Tire Rack. We made a trip up South Bend to see his grandparents and his uncle took us on a tour of the facility. It's impressive, and everyone there is a car enthusiast. They are all encouraged to test out the latest and greatest tires on the on-premise test track so they can give honest feedback to customers. They are also given tires to try. That particular day, I got a ride in a Corvette shot with some sort of new Toyo tire that was out at the time. We were doing 120mph and the engine would bounce off redline as we went over ICE patches!
