That's NOT a bad thing, the wheels are sharp as hell and I love five spoke.

I suspect the wheels on the Hybrid may be 15"? In thickness of tire, it seems to follow this trend: Hybrid -> EXV6 -> EXV66MT -> EXV66MT Coupe. They're probably 16" but who knows? The dual tipped exhaust is also cute on the Hybrid but I'm not feeling the Prius Hybrid type taillights. The Prius are way more annoying, but perhaps Honda associates their taillights with Hybridness and wanted to copy. Probably not, but it's a funny conspiracy theory nonetheless.

Blackouts would've really been nice on the headlights to add some more aggression but we'll leave that to the DIYers.
The 6 speed wheels are TL/CL Type-S, and the Hybrid must have 16" wheels since they look the same as they did before. How do the taillights look like Prius'
