      It's not even a BMW?

      I think you meant to say it's not even a Sonata.

      OP, if you give us some info on the current wheel specs and measurements (pics help), what kind of stance you want etc., we can recommend proper fitted wheel specs. Otherwise, we're not fucking certified magicians. I'm actually gonna give the secret away to this entire stance thing. Take a ruler, right? Measure some shit. If shit measures out to fit, then in real life it should fit.

      /I'm drunk. Gimme some info I can work with tomorrow and I can give you some legit advice.

              No im just being a smart ass and fckin around! But seriously thanks for the help! And on that guys diagram it shows how to find the offset, but i dont need to find the offset just need to measue if the esm009r will fit. So what do i need to measure?

                  I'd save up for some 17's. 16's are going to look tiny with a stretched tire.

                  I don't know anything about Hyundai's or Kia's though....

                  lol




                  The Kia has been parted.

                        Coils before wheels. I guess you could take a ruler and measure your wheel wells to see how much room you have. Measure things like the distance from the springs to the fender, and pretty much anything that the wheel could touch when mounted.

                        For tires just get somethin soft. I have some Falken 912s and I like the stretch they give and they aren't too expensive so I can handle replacing them often. I hear Nankangs stretch nice and so do Toyo Proxxes. Nankangs are cheap and the toyos are going to be much more expensive than the others. Go on tyrestretch.com and look at various tire there. That will tell you what tires stretch well and you will be able to see if the have lip protectors. Be sure to know if your tires have them or not and find a tire with the option you prefer. Personally I don't like the protector but I know some people do. Just research.

                            Ill definatly make sure i measuer those spots. Because if i buy 900 dollar wheels they HAVE to fit. The only thing that worries me is the offset just because i know my car max offset is like 32 or 34. But hey they all say offset is everything and i say yolo! lol This is the only part that sucks because of how FCKING expensive all this is going to be. Thanks for the suggestions for the wheels that helps a lot! and nick475 thats all i am hoping to get out of this and then slowly work on little things to make it more and more stanced.
