As you may have read in an earlier post, I slightly wrecked my car and it's being fixed this week. I got to take it on a short road trip this weekend to see a concert, it being out of my hands last thursday-friday, and surprisingly it only took me 2 days without to get back to appreciating it like the day I brought it home.

In the meantime, what do you guys think of these wheels?

However, it will feel great when you get it back. That's how I'm feeling now after getting the Forester back from a broken window .

What? 3.8? That makes it three people here with the same color. There's a guy here with a 2.0T that looks exactly like that. I thought it was you. Well in the spirit of one upmanship, i have a sunroof. Lol. I guess that's an Rspec right?

You really can't go wrong. I just noticed our cars are similarly colored. I spent a lot of time thinking about what color wheel I wanted to get. I'm still picking which style wheel I want haha.

This E92 M3 is a great example. The contrast is so gorgeous. Same color as my E90

Those wheels are awesome and I think they'd look killer on your Genesis.

I'm a 5 spoke guy, but I like those.

Yeah I did. Damn I remember now. I'm sorry the alcohol is taking a toll. I just saw your average MPG of 24.5. How the hell did you get that high? I don't drive mine often coz i have three other cars but the last time i drove it, I got about 14 average. The car still has 3719 miles on it so i guess it's not properly broken in

I use 93 and do about 500 miles a week. It's a DD, so not much playing around with it relative to my commutes

I wish i could drive it everyday but that's why I got a nissan altima. Thanks to my lust for cars i picked up a miata for $800 and I've driven it less than a thousand miles since i got it. Now that I think about it, I really don't drive any of the other cars that much but I keep buying them thanks to a nice garage, a long driveway and the fact that you can park as many cars as you want on the street , it won't get towed.

Well after it gets its first oil change I'll put some more miles on it and probably do a review. It's time to make a mental note of all other gencoupe owners here on oppo. Well nice talking to you mate and enjoy the whip

god please don't put those wheels on your genesis. Save those for the subaru bro's. The genesis deserves a set of wheels with a nice concave to them. Having seen a few people put those wheels on the car they just don't look right, far too flat for the curves of the car. I love my avant garde M310's:

Seriously... a good looking wheel but not on these cars...

What are you lowered on, Crest? Coils?

What size would you get them in?

Crest > theuserformerlyknownasaluminumfoil 10/14/2014 at 21:41

No i'm on stock ride height. Look at the fender gaps on that car and you'll know it's not lowered. Mine's the same.

Ohhhh my bad - I read saw the M3 and I thought it was as low as yours was.

Haha noooo but I do have a miata that's hella flush. I mean so low you can't even fit a jack under it anywhere
