Nightfall Edition EXP vs SXP

[Kim S]

I have a question, why does the Nightfall package cost the same on the EXP as it does on the SXP? The wheels it’s replacing are nicer on the SXP.

Because the EXP and SXP aren't the same price. The higher cost of the SXP wheels are already factored into the SXP price.

Actually, the machined 20s on EXP are more expensive to manufacture than the black SX wheels. But, it's a package which includes new wheels... so it will be the same price on both vehicles. That being said, I wish I could get Nightfall package for 1/2 the price on SX with original black SX wheels!

When I get mine I may use my Nightfall wheels as winter wheels and I'll just put Hakkapeliittas on those and buy a set of SX wheels as my summer wheels.

Thank you for your reply I didn’t quite understand...I do prefer the black SX wheels but I’m gonna roll the dice and order the Nightfall Edition. Hopefully they are better in person than in the picture.

That’s what I plan to do since I will need snow tires here in Colorado. Kinda like the truck like off-road looks of the nightfall rims too so no big deal. Just called my dealer and added the nightfall package to my soon to be ordered SXP Moss Green. Super excited because I hate how chrome spots and dis colors here in Colorado. I think probably because of magchloride on the roads in the winter.

We have the same problem here in PA. That stuff they throw on the roads is very corrosive. I had a 2004 Grand Prix GTP years ago that came with stock chrome wheels. They corroded so badly in 3 years that they wouldn't even hold air anymore.

Do you get both sets of rims with the EXP and Nightfall packages??

No, why would you think that? The nightfall wheels replace other wheels. One reason why Nightfall package isn't so expensive.

Because of the previous post about winter and summer wheels.

Ah, poster said he'd use Nightfall as winter and buy a set of SX wheels for summer.

First real sighting of Nightfall possibly. Photos off Facebook.

I wonder what is around the windows? Looks like dark chrome?

 

[Familyman20]

Sure looks like it! That window trim looks like "black chrome" tho instead of black paint or vinyl. Would like to see it in person

 

[Jcf]

I just took screenshots but heck I will take praise!!! One more photo...

The black and tinted emblems are sweet. Sure they'll be available for sale eventually from KIA. Thanks for posting. Guess 2021s are on the ground this week

Dealer said it is indeed black chrome. I will take his word for it.
