There were more of the taxi ones there, so I'm sure I have a couple more shots with one in them:

Those rims on the Prius Taxi. I see those on literally every Prius. WHY?!?!

Can someone please explain? And most of the time it's just the front or back rims, not all of them. Or it's just one wheel.

The normal five-spoke wheels are actually plastic hub caps, and the rims look like that when the hub cap falls off. I also see TONS of Prii with one, two, three, or all of their hub caps missing. Kinda like how I see tons of the 2nd gen Prii with one tail light out.

OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH Ok. That makes SOOOO much more sense. In that case, it seems the hubcaps fall off quite a lot... :P

Yeah, they don't seem to stay on very well. I think a lot of people just take them all off once one falls off, since it doesn't really look that bad.
