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. :rolleyes:

i just want to see what other people think :rofl:

currently..

I'm feelin the look of the genesis wheels on that sonata. But you would definitely need a bit moar low

jpark 07-18-2010 01:53 AM

^once i get rid of my stupid factory shocks, and get some kyb it will be a bit more lower :/

Leopold Stotch 07-18-2010 02:02 AM

i like your current wheels.

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.

+1 for current rims, just lower it.

Matsuda 07-18-2010 08:22 AM

hard to decide I like both wheels and they look good on the sonata, but yeah...lower your car first! I like your Sonata, glad to see something out of the norm so to speak

jpark 07-18-2010 08:23 AM

^it is lowereddd!@!, lol it just looks like 4x4 compared to most of the peoples car here, really dislike, :( found another pic of gen wheels on sonata, this car is lowered on same h&r springs as mine, so exactly about my height.... i dunno

Matsuda 07-18-2010 08:25 AM

maybe its just the angle of the photo then hehe, I have H&R springs too in my car, love them.

G-spec 07-18-2010 08:35 AM

yea lower it and get some spacers but I vote for your current wheels bro only because that's the same style wheel I have, 8 spoke mesh style :thumbsup:

you thought about doing your rims black like this ? gloss black lip and matte face

jpark 07-18-2010 09:06 AM

I disagree. Maybe you're forgetting twanger replica wheels that just copy the styles of other well established aftermarket wheel company. How is that better or more unique?

I say the genesis wheels would look nice!

kokanee_vtec 07-18-2010 01:59 PM

Genesis wheels.

Fafine 07-18-2010 02:02 PM

i guessss

but i dont know...just not my cup of tea. AT least not for stock rims....ish

Redlines_Daily 07-18-2010 03:19 PM

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

boss604 07-18-2010 03:30 PM

genesis wheels look pretty nice

G-spec 07-18-2010 05:08 PM

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...

holy fck found a pic on his xanga, I'm getting failed by this gangster ?

+2

The_AK 07-18-2010 07:03 PM

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.

jpark 07-18-2010 07:07 PM

^definatly giving that a try thanks :D

The_AK 07-18-2010 07:12 PM

If you're having trouble with photoshop i'm sure someone here can do it for you,
either way, post results here
