Tiburon with Genesis wheels

I still have mine hung up in the garage. Havent decided yet if I'm going to hold onto them or sell them.
The only thing is that they are staggered fitment so if you have different size tires from front to back on a Tib, it might look a little strange considering the Tib is FWD.

I think they are too big and would ruin the handling. Tiburons (old and New) were never designed to use such big rims and unless you run rediculously small sidewall tires, which also ruins handling, you will increase your COG (Center or Gravity) and ruin handling. So yeah if you wanna look like a baller with the hot wheels 30" rims and ride like a go kart on stilts then go for it!!

I dont think it's too much of a big difference. GK's came with 17's as stockers right? The Gen Coupe wheels are 18's and 19's. So it's only a +1 or +2 upsize, which many people usually do anyway. I agree that maybe 19's may be a little too big for the car, I dont really see how 18's would cause too much of a problem for it.
Now RD's on the other hand....you throw 18's on one of them, and it'll seriously look way out of place!
