The 8" wide wheel will (ideally) accept tires between 215mm and 245mm wide and the 8.5" wheel will (ideally) accept tires between 225mm and 255mm wide.

So one could run 235 tires on all four wheels or 225s in front and 245s in rear.
Thanks for responding! and for the education

do you have any problems running the staggered rims on your AWD? even tho you're running 235 all around?

as far as rubbing goes, with the 235/35/19 tires, are people rubbing at stock height on turns only or how much can these be lowered with minimal to no fender liner modification so as not be rubbing

I'm currently at 25.5" fender to ground and want to know my rubbing issues if I get 235/35/19 tires

also can you just use OEM genesis lug nuts with these instead of aftermarket.. seems like it would be a better bet and the thread pitch is the same at 12x 1.5 I believe

^You are correct about the OEM Genesis lug nuts working fine on our 2IS model with these wheels.

^Those are them! Looks super clean. Not high considering in the cost of the low-mileage tires on them.

he offer me $700 it also have tpms, pull the trigger!?Do I need anything else for my 07 AWD or can I just hook up 225/40/19 all around? plug and play?

edit: never mind, did a little digging and found out the 225/40/19 the variance is 4% which is pretty far out. need 225/35/19 and 225/30/19

Found some Genesis wheels with good tires for $600. Car is at stock height, a little rubbing which a heat gun took care of. Stock Genesis tire size as well 225/40/19 and 245/40/19.

Love these wheels, looks clean and simple.
Did you have any issues with rubbing/anything like that or was it a smooth installation with the right tires.. I have an 2011 AWD and I'm well interested in getting these along as I can find them, lol

The fronts rubbed a little. I heated up the liners and pushed them back. This was on an RWD which sits a little lower than the AWD
