Thanks!
The avatar picture is my old Prius. The new one has the OE Plug In wheels which are a little more aerodynamic looking.
The worry with the TRD springs is they are designed for the regular Prius which has a smaller battery and weighs about 100lbs less. This may create a little butt sag. Since I have never seen a Plug In with the TRDs in person I cannot say for certain but some of the pictures I've seen are worrisome. With the H&Rs I can get them for $200 installed through a friend.
This is more of a mental exercise than anything. The relatively clean body of the Prius makes the idea of lowering for better aero a little confusing because of what Neil stated. Lowering a car with a very clean underside may create drag.
