Oh...gotcha...sorry.You have 255 rears and summer tires! 225/45/18 on the back is nowhere near enough.
I have the summer 255s (non s) and even then today I got the back end out accidentally on the freeway. Merging on, 4th gear manual mode, ac on and TC fully on. Scared the shit out of me and the people around me because I didn’t mean to do that and didn’t think I could in 100 degree weather with ac on and already going that fast. The 3.3 really puts out a ton of torque. 1st gear is really limited but any other gear can get the stock ps4 to burn rubberYou have 255 rears and summer tires! 225/45/18 on the back is nowhere near enough.
I have the square 225's and find them just fine... I do have AWD though... In terms of grip, they are fine for regular driving and because of their lower limits make for some great fun!
All perspective, I guess...

Widths are fine as long as the offsets are correct. The wheels I'm looking at are 10 inches wide rear and 8.5 in front. Pictured on that Kia above. They guarantee the fit.I think Genesis really dropped the ball on the 3.3 AWD tires. Square 225 width are nowhere near sufficient to put down almost 380 lb/ft of torque, and I've been noticing that since I got the car. Even though its a lease, I was thinking new wheels which could accomodate bigger tires and I'm liking these:

19" Staggered Ace Alloy Wheels AFF06 Silver with Machined Face Rims

Only issue is the stock sport widths (which we know work) are 8 in the front and 8.5 in the rear. These only come in 8.5 for the front and 9.5 for the rear. This seems to be a common issue for staggered setups, very little 8/8.5 from what I could find.
What are you guys' thoughts on running a 8.5/9.5 19 inch setup, maybe with 235/40/19 and 265/35/19 F/R?
Haha I just noticed after a ton of independent research I like the exact same wheels you guys mentioned elsewhere in the thread, the ace alloys and the enkei pf05's

Not sure for our cars, but I'm researching the wheels I mentioned above because they looked right on the Stinger. They arent custom sizes, but the site guarantees fit.Any idea what the proper offsets might be for 8.5/9.5 19 inch wheels?
Hopefully in a month or so, I'll have some pics. I'm contemplating lowering my car .75 of an inch and then going with 20s. ;-)I'm bummed there are more pics. Wheels, tires and breaks are going to be my first mod and looking for ideas. Will keep watching!

I'm probably going with ARK GT-F springs. They are designed to work with stock shocks including the adaptive versions. Not a major drop, just enough to reduce the fender gap.I'm planning on 20s as well. Was debating on HnR lowering springs. Please post what you do!
What do you guys think between these two wheels, mesh or the multi spoke? They're both concave.
looks great - just what I was thinking of! - do you recall what the offset is? - tire width?
