  1. Wheels, Tires and Suspension
    First I would like to offer a 7 year belated thanks to homebrwd for all the awesome explanations in the stickied tire and wheel FAQ thread. I feel like I learnt so much and now realize that I'm more confused than when I started. I'm cheap and want to get some cheap rims for my 2017 LX. I found...

    Hey everybody I’m a genesis coupe owner in CT, USA and looking to sell or trade my wheels. All 4 have been recently refinished for minor nicks and rash and are in great condition. They have continentals on em with 2 good tires for another 2 seasons and 2 that should be replaced after this...
  3. Wheels, Tires and Suspension
    Newb here, sorry if this is a stupid question. Will the 2016 18" wheels fit on a 2013 SX. 2016 18" wheels have a 52mm offset, and the 2013 18" has a 46mm, worried about them rubbing the brakes. Anyone have pics of them installed ? Also, how about these 2018 Genesis 19's. Anyone seen these...
  4. Wheels, Tires and Suspension
    So I just acquired some 19" 2014 Genesis Coupe wheels for a smooth, crisp single $100 bill. My question is for anyoine that has put the GC wheels on their Optima. What do you do about the TPMS stuff? Do the 19s have any TPMS stuff on them or for them that will work with the Optimas Tire...
  5. Wheels, Tires and Suspension
    Hello all, I just purchased a set of 19" genesis wheels. Ideally I would like to have the same width all around so I could rotate tires when needed instead of having a staggered set up. Is anyone willing to trade their rears so I can run 8.5 all around? ---------- Post added at 09:02 PM...
  6. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    Hey guys..I took a risk yesterday and it paid off.. I bought a Diode dynamics Tail as Turn module that's meant to go on a Genesis Coupe, reconfigured the pinouts, plugged it in, and it worked! If you have factory installed led tails, then you just have to reconfigure the pinouts on the module...

  8. Wheels, Tires and Suspension
    I have some genesis coupe gen 2 track wheels on the way. As we know they are 19x8 front and 19x8.5 rear with +35et. I'm lowered on Megan springs (1.5 drop all around) and I know from the wheels and tire thread that I should be good with 245/35s in the rear but wasn't sure about the front. Can I...
  9. Wheels, Tires and Suspension
    I have a few questions regarding 4 front 19x8 genesis wheels I managed to get my hands on. They came off of two different sets. I'm worried the second set is a cheep aftermarket build, but I doubt that's the case. What appears to be a year sign for the second set is "2008." Which is odd since...
  10. Classified Forum
    I am looking to run all four wheels the same size (and not staggered) on my Optima. I am looking for two of the newer style R Spec Genesis coupe front wheels. If someone else had a staggered set and wanted to trade their undamaged fronts for my undamaged rears, I would likely do that as well...
  11. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    I got staggered '14 R Spec wheels and tires....Going to stay stock height because its my commuter, but anything else I should know before I bolt these on? Any spacers or center rings? Tires are 225/40/19 and 245/40/19

    http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=H_AAGCXe0i0 I was just looking at exhaust clips for our optima and came across this clip of a gen coupe . I wish they made a turbo back for the optima because this is by far the best sounding turbo back that i have ever heard on a 4 cylinder engine. :cry: What do you...
