Got new tires for the rear. Continental DW-06's in 305/30R19!

Here are the stats:


So it looks like I saved 10.2lbs at each front corner and 7.7lbs at each rear corner over stock!

Now for the pics (iPhone quality sorry):

Thanks Steena! Yea it should be the same on both sides but like a noob, I took the pic from off center in the rear and slightly at an angle haha

Thanks Kkilla! Yea I have the M&S grill in the front. I'm gonna get it painted gloss black one of these days lol.

I think you are also right about the rear...I've just been wary about doing it lol. Well I sent off my tail lights to get some work done on them so I guess I will fully debate when they come back and update this thread with some new pics.

It's actually extremely difficult to get a centered picture of the back of the car. It takes me a few tries or I just give up.
Well I feel a little better about myself lol. Yea I can never seem to get it right.

Does the rear rub
My ST's keep the car at the perfect height in the rear. I haven't had a single issue yet but if I were lower then it would for sure. That said, I may still have the professional fender roller contact of mine come out and do the rears. He actually pulled my fronts as well.

so you saved about 30lbs all around? those are pretty in-depth stats I like the 305 what is your offset? I run 295s with +45 offset and the only time I rub is if I hit a good rolling dip where the car just drops completely

^ Yea, 35.8lbs exactly. I am running +22 offset in the front and rear

Thanks bro! Yea I am gonna get some more pics shortly and I think I will debadge it completely haha.

Dis looks a lot like my car, except gray!! Nice car man, love it!
Well I must say that you made a good choice in wheels haha. Thanks bro!

How's the balance? I like the look of this, but doesn't it understeer a lot more now?
Actually exactly the opposite, the car feels much more planted at I am able to take the same corners at higher speeds and it feels much more stable doing it. I have not noticed any understeer.

That said, I have not been driving my car this week because I've been away on business AND cuz my wife let me get a little present for Father's day. I took my tails out and sent them off to get some work done on them! I am excited to get them back soon and take some new pics of the rear!

Here are the lights sitting in my friends place. He is doing all the work:

Well finally my lights are finished and coming back haha! There was a delay one one of the parts to allow it to be wired up the way I wanted. They will be Audi mod when the headlights etc are turned on with a full OEM brake when I hit the brake pedal. I've also done something else to change up the look of the rear. I hope to get some new pics this weekend.

Thanks bro! I know I can't post amounts on here but it was VERY reasonable. I think he's a member on here. I'll see if I can get you in touch with him.

Car is gorgeous! Are you as low as you can go with the coilovers? I have been trying to decide which ones to get. Are they good for daily driving?

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! The rears are as low as you can go. I could go down about another 1-1.5inches on the front if I wanted to. The side shot in the light is deceptive because of the way my driveway is poured. It normally sits about 5/8" in the rear and 3/8" in the front with regards to gap on a flat surface.

As for daily drive-ability, it is the perfect mix between hard and soft. It is firm yet not punishing and it is stable and offers the right balance for hard take-offs. I have driven it on multiple 4 hour rides and have been perfectly content. It actually is more comfortable than stock to me. With the 245/35R19's in the front and the 305/30R19's in the rear, the cornering ability with this car is insane. I am extremely happy with my setup as it is today.

I haven't tried all the other coilovers for this car but to me, the ST coils offer one of the best bangs for the buck. I have sat in my friend's cars with BC coils, Stance coils and Parts Shop Max. I am not all into changing a whole bunch of stuff so the ease of use on the ST Coils and the great ride that they gave me made the choice easy for me.

The rear normally sits about 5/8" above the tire. I don't normally have any issues. If I take a really fast u-turn, it might rub but mostly I haven't had any issues on the streets I normally drive. That said, I just got back from driving to Virginia and I had a few terrible bridge transitions with a rapid down then up transition that caused me to rub. I have ProFenders coming out on Thursday to pull/roll my fenders. They did it to my fronts. What camber are you running with your 295's?

Good looking Genesis, love those tail lights!
I appreciate it man. Yea I think the black looks really good.

Looks great!
Thanks bro!
