There are several tire chain options for a 195/60-15 tire size. The first thing you are going to want to do is consult the vehicle owners manual to determine if there are any special requirements for using chains on your 2010 Toyota Prius.

Next you want to consider how much you are going to be using chains. For infrequent use or just to have some in the vehicle where legally required I recommend a set of cable type chains such as # PW1030 with rubber adjusters # PW100. I have included a link to a video review of these cables for you.

For frequent use and for chains that will last you a long time I recommend the Titan Chain Alloys # TC1530. These chains have square links for the best traction and are made of a mangaese nickel alloy for years of service.
