Folks, its gonna be cheaper for me to buy a full set of aftermarket alloys, than buy a single alloy from hyundai.

What size do i need, and is there any other vehicle makes models, that will fit directly onto the gen 3.5? I think Mazda RX8 are a direct fit? any others?

As above; Ninos has had RX8 and 300c wheels on his car. With the 300c wheels you'll defo have to change the tyre for a much lower profile. I think the same applies for the RX8 wheels, although I'm not 100% certain.

Theres plenty of nice aftermarket available these days for a good price.

18's fill the arches a bit better than 17's on a Gen3/3.5 IMO.

i have OEM 17's on mine, mick has 18's on his.Either size looks good and i actually think the ride has improved with the 17s, seems smoother then when i had the 16s. I remember Jack had 19's on his V6 and they looked a lil bit too big IMHO.

i had the same question and got forwarded onto Ninos to... and man am i glad i did... i checkied out his car with the 300c alloys and they are just mint. 18" though meant i had to fit 35profile tyres but its a small price to pay. i can only recommend them. Admiring glances everywhere i go, it just completely changes the look and gives off a much greater presence, if that makes sense. ha
