I'd like to know too. More importantly did the wheels match our hub or did you have to use rings?

you do not need hubcentric rings for these wheels. they bolt right on no issues.

My confusion has overtaken me.
To clarify you mean that the genesis coupe bore centric diameter matches ours?
Cause if there's is bigger then that makes sense that they would "bolt" up to ours but I'd rather not have a wheel resting on just 5 lug nuts. I'd also like it to rest on my hub bore

Hi,

I currently have the Genesis wheels on my car right now. When I got them installed, the mechanic asked if I had any hubcentric rings. I asked if I really needed them and he said no but, that they are recommended for any aftermarket wheels. I was still a little unsure so I bought a set of polycarbonate rings off eBay. I'm going to put them on whenever the weather clears up around here. I'll let you you know.

You couldn't GIVE me a Genesis. that thing is a tin can....putting the wheels on the Lex did them justice.

I love the OEM look.....

So according to the genesis forum The genesis coupe hub bore is 67.1mm... And I think ours is 60.1mm. Not completely sure on either as I haven't measured either hub bore.

But if this IS true then I'm in wonder of how exactly the OP has no vibration? Anyone with these wheels should, imo, get hub rings for these genesis wheels.

Alright, so I tried putting on the hubcentric rings yesterday. I had to shave off a little bit of the ring to get it to fit in the wheel. I then tried putting my wheel back on but had trouble getting them to fit on correctly so I just took the rings off. Haven't heard of anyone using hubcentric rings for these wheels and I honestly think the fitment is a close match without them. Also, I have not experienced any vibrations on these wheels.

Thanks for chiming back in.
So to wrap my head around this you had 67.1 outter diameter hub ring w/ a 60.1 inner diameter and it wouldn't fit when you attempted to put that ring inside the genesis 19" wheel?

I'm wondering if in fact the ring should have been a 67.06 measurement???

Where did you get your hubcentric rings from?

Did you clean and brush the inner hub hole on the genesis wheel with a wire brush to clear out all debris prior to attempting to insert the hubcentric wheel?
Lastly, how much did you get the genesis wheels for?
TIA!

I got these rings off of eBay "HUBCENTRIC HUB CENTRIC RING RINGS WHEEL RIM 60.10 x67mm". I did not clean around the hub (probably should have) I don't know if it would have made a difference. It just wouldn't sit right. And I got the wheels for $500 shipped (a steal)... Just search around on the Gencoupe forum.
