| vote pleaseee for my wheels :)
i dont remember his username but the limegreen genesis coupe 3.8gt (if any of you guys know) is willing to sell me his 19" track wheels once he gets his new wheels... i wanted these wheels for the longest time for my car, but the size is only 19x8 front and 19x8.5 rear, not that agressive.. my current set up is 19x8.5 +35 front and 19x9.5 +38 rear ace stradas... wat do you guys think? keep my wheels or get the gen coupe wheelss? and throw on some spacers to get it a bit more flush... i dont know. 
i just want to see what other people think 
currently.. 
genesis wheels 
this is what it will look like... except this car is more loaw than mine and its running spacers front and back.. not sure about the size of the spacers.   |

IMO, the car with Genesis wheels look nicer than your car mainly because of its stance.
While changing your wheels may look nicer, I'm sure changing the stance of your car has a bigger impact.
Now, if you really have to pick between the 2 wheels, my choice would be the Genesis wheels.

+1 for current wheels... running people's stock wheels is nice sometimes... like 05-06 rsx type-s wheels on 8th gen's... but in this case... just boring

I'm feeling the oem genesis wheels however the picture you show, the car is lowered more, running more camber, bodykit, big brake kit, probably a front spacer to make the wheel fit for the calipers, paint, and some finishing touches. That is why the car looks good.
If the genesis wheel is just bolt on to how your car sits now, I don't think it will look better than your stradas. the genesis wheel will sunk your wheel in by 6mm in front and 9 mm in the rear. plus your tire won't be as stretched unless you go smaller on the tire. and I would only recommend to run spacer if it is a "must".
In conclusion. save your money. spend it on making the suspension better, and stay with your stratas. maybe add a bodykit.

I say the genesis wheels would look nice!

I think current wheels look better than the genesis wheels, and also +1 for painting them black.

| jPark yea man DPE if full custom, every option imaginable you can customize there is no set generic wheel you can get from them when you order you have to specify each part and how you want it. But off course you can paint it yourself or powdercoat it even better.
geez who the fuck is this Leung Dog guy stalk failing me for no reason...
I bukkaked a chick years and years ago with last name Leung, maybe the brother ?
holy fck found a pic on his xanga, I'm getting failed by this gangster ? 
shit man, I didn't know you rolled hard like that with the whole suit and G pose and all that, can we peace it out bro, I don't want any problems with you, whatever I did to offend you I'm sorry homie can we squash this beef ?
is that male pattern baldness btw or just a shitty haircut?

I say do this,
take a picture of your car from the same angle as the Sonata with genesis rims, photoshop them on, and then compare.
That would be the best comparison in my opinion since you know almost exactly how it will look.
