2012 3.8L Brakes

[Philth]

According to the HMA site, the 2012 3.8L brakes are different than the 4.6L, but I thought these were all the same for the 2012 year.

Does anybody know what the deal is?

You might be able to find out by looking the parts/prices on http://www.newhyundaiparts.com

That's how I figured out that the rear stabilizer bar for all 2012's+ are the same, regardless of engine or trim level (Base, Premium, Tech, R-Spec).

Thanks. I usually use http://www.hyundaioemparts.com, as their shipping is generally a tad cheaper. (Parts costs are about the same.)

It appears they are different, though they don't show part numbers.

Yup,

All 3 engines choices in 2012 also have different brake sizes. The 3.8L and 4.6L were both larger than previous years, and the R Specs were even larger than those.

Yes, much bigger than previous models. The 17" winter wheels/tires that I had used on my 2009 Genesis wouldn't fit until I got them re-balanced with thinner wheel weights!! The clearance is less than 1/8".
