2009 Hyundai genesis coupe

[simpleonin]

Expect FC to be worse depending on your boost and power.

Simpleonin what brand? for 20k you can almost get a brandnew Rota copy of those rims.

Why not go 19s para mas gwaffu?

wow really hahaha. its really a good thing to ask muna :D

I'm still waiting for her reply kung anong brand.

Mahirap daw maghanap ng tires for 19's, is it true?

how about 20's? would it be okay to get 20's?

thanks yuichi

[laterald]

nope. copy lang daw. wish ko lang hahaha

as for the specs hindi ko pa sure. but its 18's

i know the originals will cost me more

rims to rims lang po

Yes sir that can't be original. If you want porma, i suggest you go with 19's sir. If you are after performance, go for 18's.

You need to know the width and the offset of the rims you are getting sir. The rims might end up hitting the suspension and you might not be able to use it. sayang pera.

thanks for the advice sir laterld

if im going 19's what would be the best offset i could get?

Yes sir!

thanks for the advice sir laterld

18's or 19's, you are safe with +20 to +25 offset sir if you are looking to have your rims look good on the car. By that i mean flushness. I went with +20 and it sticks out. Stock is +35. So if you get rims that are the same offset, parang nagpalit ka lang ng design ng mags. It really depends on what look you are going for sir.

[simpleonin]

Yes sir!

noted sir

If I'll go with +20 to +25 offset do I need to mod the car or the stock setup can handle that offset?

[noel007]

Ok thanks sa reply simpleonin. Ok go na go na ako sa GC!

May tunog ba yung stock BOV ng GC?

[laterald]

You can run it stock sir. But there are chances that the rims will hit the suspension so i suggest you test it out first. You have to be careful when choosing mags especially for RWD cars like ours. You don't plan to lower with car after the mags sir?

Wala po sir sound yung stock.

I'm still reading a lot of threads and articles regarding flushing, dropping, lowering, etc of the car. But up until now I'm still having a hard time understanding the need of those and that's why I really appreciate you answering my queries

If I'm going to drop my car I have to deal with the notorious humps and pot holes in our street kaya dilly dally ako mag drop.

I've seen a lot of dropped GC and they look nice, kaya lang they are not from our country so maybe they can afford to. If I should lower the car mga ilang inches kaya?

if I change rims w/ the offset you suggested(+20 to +25 offset), does dropping the car will have a high chance that the rims will hit the suspension? tama po ba?

Kaya naman idrop yang GC planuhin mo ang ang lakad mo. Front bumper clearance ng ride ko is 4inches lang, before 31/2 pa nga, may sayad talaga sa mga matataas na humps at ramps kaya puro patagilid. Pero mas masaya ako kasi pogi kesa nung stock ride height.

Hindi lang pala pamporma, will improve your handling as well pag lowered, given maganda yung springs mo.

Or mag Coilovers ka para maadjust mo height.

maririnig ang stock BPV pag naka short ram intake.
or go for HKS BOV nalang

how about 20's? would it be okay to get 20's?

thanks yuichi

Welcome. My car's FC went up about 20-25% compared to when it was stock. Pero you'll surely love it!

Medyo mahirap nga daw, source direct from a friend who sells Bridgestone Tires and happens to own a 2.0 GC as well.

20's in GC? parang sobra na IMO. 19 is just perfect with proper offset.

Flushness is basically how much your rims come out of the fender sir. example:




With what you mentioned, i think you are better off going with lowering springs like eibach, with wheels about +25 to +30 para the tires won't hit your fender. Kasi if you are going for flush look, you should be running coilovers to avoid tires scraping the fenders.

I say no to 20 inch as well. Too much. 18 to 19 inch is perfect for a GC. As for the humps, when you lower your car, it's given that it will scrape on some humps. But that's why you should not go over humps straight on. Do EKIS as what filipinos call it.

+1 HKS BOV FTW!!!

are you using Eibach Springs?

[laterald]

^ No sir! I have BC coilovers on the way. I will install the rims and the coils sabay na.

[ledifni]

kamusta nga po pala fuel efficiency ng base model ng gc? how much po ba sa city and highway?

[MMMickey]

I did sir when i first bought the car. But when i found out about the reflash i decided to try it. How many gains on your car? Is yours a 2.0T sir?

No dyno yet but I'm happy with mine. Its also a lot more flexible than a canned tune. Yes, 2.0T

I peak out at 21psi with no problems. Its a LOT zippier than stock but you have to deal with heat soak.

Ya i guess you'll need better intercooler to lessen the heat soak. Nice sir! 21psi? i'm still at stock boost. I plan to complete installation of the parts then when Jay comes, i wanna increase my boost.

Where do you get it tuned? You get the settings from CMD?

[Snapshot021]

^
Sir i think the SFR reflash increases boost

[MMMickey]

Strictly speaking, the CMD is not a standalone unit. You will also need these at a bare minimum: (if you are serious about tuning that is)

Boost gauge
AFR gauge
Wideband sensor
Dynojet WB2

Maps are available from DynoJet's site; however, you still have to fine tune these with the help of the above supporting mods.

Tuning is by Vince of Spool Motorworks: 09|7 528 l368

I highly suggest you give him a call.
