Well, after much thought I ended up getting some 19's (had been thinking of 20's) from WheelDude. Satin Black..
Linea Corse LC818 19x8.5 front and 19x10 in the rear I think 30 offset front and 38 rear. (it's what is on their site under genesis sedan) I made the mistake of not specifying when placing the order that it was for the Genesis (I think it defaults to the Lexus fitment when the order is placed and the only difference is the hub rings). They shipped out a set of the correct hub rings after I mentioned it for free though.
Wheels were delivered a couple weeks ago, and just had to wait for tires. I originally had planned 255/35 and 295/30 Vredestein Ultra Sessanta's but ended up changing my mind over a week into my order (they were on back-order anyway).
End decision came out to be 245/45's and 275/40's General G-Max AS-03's. TO me they are a little louder then the Continentals or the Vredestein's would have been but I didn't want to lose that much tire diameter. So I compromised, traction is a lot better then the Continentals and the ride is a lot softer though. Did I mention the ride is a lot softer?
Since I had to wash the lovely Vegas dust off it, I attempted to take some pictures. You can click on the image to view my horrible-excuse-for-a-photographer-photos. Yes these were taken from my camera phone. Though I know it needs to be detailed sometime as well.
I know everyone has their own taste in wheels, and for me these look rather nice. I know I now need to paint the calipers since Hyundai so nicely mismatched the colors.
I'll put on the center caps at some point, I just got lazy.
Maybe sometime I'll see if someone wants to take some better pictures of it, you guys might suggest "by someone who knows the front from the back of the camera..."
I did however get my first roadside compliments, mostly just me needing to tell them what kind of car it isn't.
