20x9 +38mm Verde Axis

I ordered these a couple of days ago and tracking says they will be here this Friday. I'm a little worried they won't clear the front calipers but I will test fit them and show the results. If not I will run spacers I guess to get a somewhat flush look. I will definitely post pictures of the whole process and keep everyone updated. Hopefully it as nice as this M5 in terms of color.

Those are nice.

They look a bit too "aventador" for the genesis, too many hard angles vs. flowing lines... but to each his own... enjoy the wheels!

 

[Subninja]

The hard angles and lines are the reason I went with them. I feel it is an example of a current wheel and most of the wheel choices I have seen on here just look cheap, aren't clean, or are just plain ugly..lol.

Should clear no problem. Rim is just going to be an inch wider in both directions with the same offset as stock.

These look really nice. I like the BMW pictured and it has a similar body line as the Genny. I too am watching this thread because I believe it will look very good!

But, the proof is in the pictures!

Finally got them in and on the car. I went with 255/35/20 tires and I have no issue with offset or tire rub. I also got rid of the "yucky" chrome trim and now it's brushed aluminum.

Now if I could just find some coilovers with a softer ride...lol. Also thinking about plasti dipping the grill flat black.

BC makes a V8 setup that ride awesome and cost around 1k.

They just finished R&D on them. I recommend totally

Calipers painted.

 

[flynblind]

Love the look of the rims. I am not a big fan of the finish, Gun Metal Grey. Do they come in other finishes?

 

[Subninja]

No they only come in gunmetal and black. I would have liked silver over gunmetal myself but I am okay with these. I might get them painted or powdercoated in the future.

Now for a grill comparison in another thread.

What brand of caliper paint did you go with and how was the process?

 

[Subninja]

I went with G2 caliper paint kit. Comes with everything needed and cost about $100.
