I’m going to guess $1,600 for the tires, rims, mounting, taxes and tire levy.

One high, one low, one pretty close.  ;D $1490 all in.

If its anything less than 2k its a hell of a deal. Mrs. BC's 18" setup on her MDX was $2K back in 2016 and I shopped around. 

Edit:  Killer deal. 
Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.

I was going to ask for more info (wheel brand, tires, date codes  ;)..Very good deal.

I would have thought $1750 would be a smoking deal. Unless they are no name wheels on 5 year old chaoyang tires ..   ;)

That is more than a deal, that is a steal. They literally gave you an offer you couldn't refuse. Nice. :thumbup:

Great deal. That’s like the days when the CAD  was decent and you could save a ton by ordering  from Tirerack and getting them shipped to a US address.

I went with the same Michelin XIce 3s I have on my 2015.  I was ready to try Blizzaks just for a change of pace, but the deal on these was too good to pass up.
Any guesses on price - 4 18" alloy wheels, 4 tires, 4 tire pressure sensors, tax-in?

Jesus. Not just alloys and tires but good tires, pressure sensors, mount and balance, and tax

And the sweet Genesis pickup and drop off experience

Usually the lux dealers seem to have rims and tires with a $5000 price tag

Cheers gents.

Almost seems like a mistake.  :P

Actually, I was worried about the same. So I asked.  :-[  Part of me didn't want to rock the boat and part of me didn't want any unpleasant surprises on installation day.  Pirelli P-Zero - tires alone - in the staggered OEM 19" size run $1900 (before duty / tax) on tire rack. So yeah - I kind of couldn't give them my money fast enough.  ;D  Definitely feeling like I caught a massive break, considering that everything else in the world feels like it costs twice as much as it should right now.

Clearly I'm out of touch with prices on 18" wheels and tires.

One year update - a couple months late - and.... all is as it was.  Zero issue of any kind in year one for me, year 4 - 5 for the car (can't presently recall when the original on-the-road date was).  Still looks like new and drives like new.

The car proved to be every bit the unstoppable tank in winter that my 2015 was - which is hardly surprising.

Today marked the second servicing from Genesis, and that has to be the BIGGEST change in the separation from the Hyundai brand.

Car was collected from my driveway.  Service rep did a walk-around on it before even ringing the bell, so the handover took all of 1 minute and 15 seconds.  Yes, I timed it - have to justify owning a chronograph whenever I can.  :rofl2:

Loaner is brand new (500 km on it), hyper clean and has a full tank of gas. I don't care how nice the coffee and croissants are at other luxury car dealerships - I prefer this.  ;D



Black on black always screams airport limo to me, but then again if one of these pulled up for me at Pearson, I'd be thrilled.
