Default Wheels are done & mounted

After a month I am finally done with project.

For a do-it-yourself powedercoating i am really happy with the outcome

The HARDEST part was resealing these rims, i dont think i will ever do this again.

Didn't give the wheels a good cleaning yet.


Car still needs some TLC
-Adjust healights
-Fenders need more shaving
-and a few other things

ENJOY

the fenders look like it has a bad paint match or it needs color sanding to match the rest of the car..good job on the wheels though.

Yeah its nice for a DD

Funny story

Took the Genesis in for scheduled maintenance, after i got on the freeway the traction control light would flash everytime i went over 75 MPH and i would lose all power. So i turned the T.C off and everything was okay. After i got home i inspected the car, well seems that they didnt know this car was staggered and mounted one front wheel to the rear, WTH.

Well the next day i decided to test them and took it back. I said what happened and the guy said it was my alternator, i kept asking him if he was absolutely sure and he said 100% LMAO!

I brought him out to the car and told him that it wasnt and that you guys mounted the wheels wrong. Guy was so embarrased. I said i was going to complain to corp.(but really i wasnt) so he gave me a few extra scheduled maintenance's so i would stay quiet.
