In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help.

It seems like there are so few Genesis on the road it is difficult to match parts from the aftermarket.

I saw this when I wanted to order my TPMS monitors as the drop down list says not compatible when you select the Genesis however the part number is correct and yes they are the right part.

I am looking for black lug nuts for my winter wheels which are the original mags painted charcoal as the chrome ones look out of place. The nuts used are Toyota style with a shoulder 12mm x 1.5 thread. Nothing out there says compatible with Hyundai however I took a nut off and measured every detail with my calipers and sure enough they are an exact duplicate of the Toyota mag nuts. Here is where I got the dimensions to compare with. http://www.ezaccessory.com/Toyota_Lexus_OEM_Mag_Lug_Nuts_p/98-0003.htm

Knowing the Toyota ones fit no problem it opens up the doors for search possibilities. Searched for "73633TBC" as this is what the Toyota part number correlates to on the Gorilla site as can be seen here. http://www.gorilla-auto.com/the-system Did a google search and ended up buying these which are listed for Mitsubishi and not the Genesis however they are the right ones. http://www.ebay.com/itm/161600324592?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
 
Did you confirm fit? Thanks for posting. Very hard to find cool stuff for our cars
 
Yes they are 12mm x 1.5. I just bought these for my winter wheels this year. Had a few that came all scratched and the seller send replacement out right away no questions asked.

We should have a sticky compatibility thread that is a simple list of compatible parts.

that would be awesome. Has anyone confirmed if the equus or genesis coupe rims fit the genesis sedan? had a hell of a time finding winters that would fit. had to settle for a set that the manufacture confirmed to fit.

Equus wheels are staggered (F 8.5", R 9") and do fit, the Coupe are staggered (F 8", R 8.5"), only the rear fit without a spacer

UPDATE:Confirmation

I installed the wheel nuts yesterday and yes the "Toyota Mag Wheel" nuts are identical and fit the Genesis exactly like the originals as posted above.

My WINTER wheels. Factory wheels painted charcoal slight metallic with clear coat and black wheel nuts. Heck, even painted the centre hubs to match. :D

I’m usually not a fan of black painted wheels but I must say they look better then the originals.
 
Looking to update and upgrade your Genesis luxury sport automobile? Look no further than right here in our own forum store - where orders are shipped immediately!
I've asked this before (w/o an answer), won't the G1 18" Genesis sedan wheels work for winter tires? It seems that the bolt pattern is the same and the offset varies only by about 5 mm. Depending on the style, prices on ebay range (w/shipping) from $100 to $200 each. Considering the winter salt and slush mess in NW PA, I don't much care if the wheels have been curbed or a less-than-perfect finish. However, winter tires on the AWD sedan should be great.
