235/35/18 is a bit smaller in diameter and 235/40/18 is a bit bigger in diameter compared to stock. I would do 235/35/18 if you are planning to go really low other wise you will have a larger wheel gap

Love the look, Def getting these. I just REALLY want Lexus centercaps, or even a clean plain cap. Can the genesis cap be sanded smooth and just painted? Is it aluminum? Maybe sand it down and have powdercoat the wheels AND center caps. I'd just like the wheels a nice gunmetal color. That would be enough for me.

235/35/19 is what your running? I LOVE the look and I hate to do it, but I have to bite of your idea.
I have an IS350 so being RWD, I'll keep it staggered. I'm trying to determine what sized tires to go with. The stock genesis uses 225/40/19's in the front and 245/40's in the rear.
I'm thinking of doing 255/35/19 for the rear and 225/35/19 for the front. That keeps the overall diameter very close to stock. Any insight from anyone?
