First thing I though of when going with a spoke style wheel. We will see in the near future.

Ive been trying to find out if the brembos from the genesis 2.0t will bolt up (with rotors and backing plates of course). I just need a cheap used front and rear non brembo caliper from a 09 + gen to test fit. If those fit, then the brembos will fit because they are swapable across all gens. Just havent found one cheap enough. I did find a pair of black front brembos from the 09 gen 4.6 for $300 shipped, but they're not as good as the red brembos from the 2.0t

I do have a set of Stoptech 355's in the garage. Would probably have to fab up a custom bracket though.

I have been wondering if the Gen Coupe fits as well. Maybe I can find out at work.

Going with 245/35/20 tires. Looks like it should work perfect with 20x9 et40.

IDK...I always thought that GOLD looked AWESOME on a BLACK car as long as all the chrome trim pieces were also plated gold. Having a mix of chrome and silver...not my cup of tea but the car will look sharp:smile:

If you have a shiny chrome-like lip on the wheels like in his first post, the car should look fine with chrome accents.

As of this morning there was a change of plans. Not doing gold as my buddy told me they have another set in all Silver.

These will be the wheels and how they will look on the car (pshopped)

Love that better

**homebrwd** · 02-22-2012, 03:51 PM

Booooo silver and not gold.

Yea, I like the gold but at the end of the day it is a company car and all the other hyundai and Kias in our garage have ZERO modifications to them. Gotta keep it a little classy but a nice aggressive look. Which is why i went with the step lip.
