CanadiaegeanBlue above told you what rotors you need, no stock rotors do not work, you need Nissan Rogue rotors.

Ok,

Just so we are all on the same page....

1. Genesis Brembo's are full bolt on.

2. You need to change the rotors to the rotors from a Nissan Rogue with 3rd row seats.

3. For stock wheels you need at least 20mm spacers or larger.

4. For non stock wheels you want at least 3.5mm space between the brakes and the wheels. More is preferable.

Is this correct @CanadiaegeanBlue and @AsianGuy98 ?

Correct on all fronts. Yes, minimum 3.5mm space from any point on the wheels and caliper - I have 5mm spacers incoming, and will get 7mm custom ones with longer studs if I am not satisfied. Wheels can flex and bend, brakes also expand and contract under harsh use so be safe and have proper clearance because you don't want those making contact!

If someone could measure the space between the wheel mount (rotor area w/ studs) and the calipers, that would be awesome...thanks!

I heard Nissan Juke rotors also work. Just not sure which juke option it would be or if it matters.

I'm sure there's plenty car models that'll work. 320x28mm is what was stated to work...

Would love to see other models as well, as I would think it'll be hard to search and find 'Nissan rogue drilled and slotted rotors'.

What years Hyundai Genesis had these? And was it just the coupe to look them up?

Rotor specs for the two. I don't have Si specs, but if anyone can source these please add them.

See how the Gen Coupe rotor height is too tall to fit on the Si. I don't know of any other rotors that would be suitable, unless one get's them custom made.

Also, @AsianGuy98 I see you have just slotted rotors, I prefer those over drilled.
What brand/part number are those please?

Thanks again, I know it's not just me jonesing to save a $1000 on a DIY kit
