Wheels and Insurance
 
Does anyone know what the smallest size rim for the Genesis Coupe? The 2.0T (Auto) is just within my new car budget, and the only unknown I have atm is the cost of winter tires. Getting a set of winter tires for the stock 18" would probably be a weeee bit too much. I tried asking at the dealership, but they had no idea.

As for the insurance.....I went to the Hyundai dealership a couple weeks ago and took an 3dr Accent and Elantra Touring for a test drive. Loved em both. I couldnt resist taking a seat in the GC they had in the showroom. That car fits you like a glove, or a nice hug, but in a good way (as the saleman put it). Later, I priced one out, just for curiosity sake, and found the base auto was within my budget for a new car (~$400/month).

I figured that the insurance costs would be rather high for the GC, but decided to call around (also checking rates for other potential purchases). I found it would cost me around $950/yr (The Personal, I'm 26 male with a good record). I also checked a few other sports cars, to compare what their rates were after a few claims had been filed (08 Tiberon $1200, 09 Mustang $900). I dont have the exact numbers with me, but I can post em once I get home tonight.

18" is standard, 19" are options. If you want smaller wheels, you will have to check to see if they will fit first and then buy them in the aftermarket.

You cannot go 17", it will touch the calipers. Minimum 18"
