  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Genesis Coupe r spec wheels on sedan 3.8

Decided to test fit these wheels and see how they look just in case anyone is thinking about doing the same. Right off the bat the fronts WILL NOT FIT unless you use at least a 5mm spacer. The front caliper WILL NOT allow the wheel to spin. I also used a 5mm spacer on the rear which filled the fender nicely and does not protrude beyond the fender. The rear is a perfect flush fitment with the fender. The fronts however are tucked in a bit even with the 5mm spacer. One thing I did notice is the road noise and ride did suffer a tab bit but not to an extent where it's annoying. My 2012 sonata is loud as hell in regards to road noise and such.

At this point because of how the front wheels did not fill in the wheel well that good I may either find another set of rear wheels and use only 4 rears non staggered or add tires with the same specs as the rear......or might just keep them as the are not a fan of using bigger spacers and adding extended studs and all.



Anyhow here are the pictures
