I have seen alot of staggered fits with 10.5" rears so is it possible to go 11"? if so, what offset/tires/camber..etc?
 
Well going with the same factory offset (+39) adds 1 1/2" on both sides.
Not sure there is that much room to do that.
 
Just took some rough measurements.

Stock RSpec wheels and tires
You've got 1" until the outer edge of the tire is flush with the wheel well
You've got just about 1.5" until the inner edge of the tire hits the rear shock.
 
So i take it it is possible (fingers crossed) but the only way it will work is with customed offsets and even then you may have a little poke out.
 
That would be a retarded decision on your part. 11" wheels are not made in middle range positive offsets (because the vast majority of cars don't have that much inner clearance). They are all very low, which is bad for handling, street driving, and reliability. You would never be able to fit the size tire that belongs on 11" wheels no would you ever need tires that wide. Not to mention it would look like:

i have 20x11.5 with 0 offset on the rear when i air out all the way to slam the car my q-panel is kinda sitting on top of the tire (and i have slight pull on the rear.) since there is no camber kit or anything made for this car so i will have to pull more to fit the wheel on my case. when i did put the wheels on my gap between the inner barrer and shock body was about inch or slightly more space on there. and i have about 1.5 to 2 inches sticking out from the stock body. so my guestimate yes it's possible to fit but it will be really tight fit in there.
 
Not to be a negative nellie, i just don't understand any logical reasoning for doing this. sounds like a big pile of problems for no benefit.
 
Because some people like the look, but it's not for everyone.

well it is big pile of problems maybe but to my eyes or whoever that love this style will like it. Tuning car to me is like me wearing different type of shoes and cloth. Its about style that you like and if i want something i work hard to get it. So whatever it takes if i decided to go for it then i do it. But for your point of view it's just not your style or too much trouble to just fit a set of wheel. So until you get to like that style of tuninh you probably say "why?" And my simple answer will be "i like it"

Because some people like the look, but it's not for everyone.
Thank you!

I'm 31 and agree that there is no point in using excessive sizes.

im 30 and i honor everybody's own taste of tuning car style. im not saying excessive wheel size on the car looks better then others. it's just i love that style of the look and some people don't. im more into wide look of the sedan and vip style. i know that not everybody likes the style but i don't understand why some people hating and bashing other people's build and style. and this thread was started a guy trying to see if he can fit wider wheels then he have seen before. i just throw out my spec so he can have at least of somewhat idea of what he can do on his ride. i tried to help people.

Different strokes for different folks I guess.
Here's my old ls.

For me though, this car is gonna be a family car so nothing crazy like this.
 
Ditto ↑↑↑ Nice looking LS.

Want to check change in fitment between different rim widths and offsets there are two sites I use.
http://www.willtheyfit.com/
http://www.fitmywheels.com/ can include the camber.

Rule of thumb on camber change in Front:
One Inch = -.75*°
Two Inches = -1.50°
Three Inches = -2.50°

Rear:
One Inch = -.50*°
Two Inches = -1.00°
Three Inches = -2.00°


Garcia When You say slight pull in rear how much are you talking? I'm guessing rolling wasn't enough.

hey I just wanted to know if it was possible. I have seen other cars with 11" rear width so I figured that the genesis had a bigger rear fender well that it may fit.

Every car has different inner and outer wheel clearances and optimal offset ranges based on differing suspension gemoetry. It's comparing apples to oranges.

Because a lot of people who want to try it don't grasp what they are trying to do. Everything about VIP/stance is harmful to the car, whether it's handling, ride, or reliability, on half of questionable tastes in aesthetics. It makes a car completely useless, which is why stance is a cancer to the automotive enthusiast community. If a part won't fit correctly without benefiting the car, it's not really helping anyone unless their intention is a parking lot queen.

well. most of the hyundai's vehicle's q-panel now is folded so no need to roll. mine was about 3/4 to an 1inch pull but needs about another 1inch's to 1 1/2 inch pull this is because i have 0 offset on the rear.

hey I just wanted to know if it was possible. I have seen other cars with 11" rear width so I figured that the genesis had a bigger rear fender well that it may fit.
if you have right offset it might. only thing about genesis sedan is that rear shock body is pretty close to the inner barrel of the wheel. so too high offset with 11in wide in the rear might not fit.

well i agree on some but not all the stance car is useless. im sure what your talking about is that crazy fitment with crazy camber to fit the wheel on the vehicle's body. yes some might think it looks cool and some might think it's stupid. i personaly like the look of those cars but yes it's useless since there is no grip on tire, tire wear is crazy etc. i have a kid and wife ride with me all the time. i don't want to risk life of my whole family for that damn looks. my car on the other hand, it's on air and not crazy camber at all( there is no camber kit for genesis sedan out yet) so when i drive i just air up and drive away. So my car is not a parking lot queen and i don't consider my car as a useless.??? just my opinion.
