  1. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    Hey all. As we all might have seen, since 2013 we have been dealing with and reporting that dealers used the wrong oil weights in our cars. Well hopefully this will be fixed now. Print out the TSB and keep it with you if you want. Congrats to us for getting this done...
  2. Interior and Exterior Modifications
    I have a 2012 Optima Hybrid with the pano sunroof, i.e. two panes of glass as the roof. I have had ZERO problems with it. I'm thinking about adding a roof rack for my sea kayak. It's listed at 62lbs, but I think it's actually more. It wouldn't be all the time. Just once in a while for a quick...
  3. Wheels, Tires and Suspension
    Looking into some wheels and wanted to know which manufactures I should be focusing on. I want a wheel of quality and light. I'm looking for 20's and 9.5 fronts and 10.5 in the back. I want deep concave look. I know TSW makes some quality wheels but not sure if they are the lightest. Please...
  4. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    At my Miata club meeting tonight, I talk to a long time member who is now temporarily in a 2006 BMW 330i. That thing weighs the same as a '13 SXL, has a 13.5 lb/hp ratio (the optima has 12.3 lb/hp) and is reported to go zero to 60 in about 5.5 seconds. Our SX & SXL's are 6.1? I GUESS it could...
  5. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    Hello forum members :D I didn't know which section to post this so I just decided to write one here. So I'm getting some gen coupe wheels very soon and I'm about to sell my wheels, tires, tpms, and wheel spacers. I'm probably going to have to ship out the spacers if someone on this forum buy...
  6. Wheels, Tires and Suspension
    Here's the thing: everyone scoffs at heavy wheels, and everyone seeks light, strong wheels, claiming that a decrease in wheel weight equals free horsepower, etc, etc. Has anyone done a test, where they've taken the same car to the track on the same day, slapped on different wheels of different...
  7. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    I took a picture of my door sill tag, or whatever it is called. I know the "IYR" means my ride is Spicy Red, but I am confused on the weight figures. I thought I was buying a fairly light sedan, on par with the Accord. It weighed in (by Car and Driver) at 3350 lb's for the EX, which is what I...

  9. Wheels, Tires and Suspension
    Does anyone know the weight of the oem wheels and tired on the 2011 optima. I need the weight of the 16's but also are could use the weight of the 17;s and 18's. I need the wheels and tires but will take the wheels only too. I need them for shipping estimates so if its not exact its OK. Thank you
