APEX | 17" 4-Lug ARC-8 Pre Group-Buy Discussion Thread

[FLG]

Hey guys,

Steve B. was managing and originally started this Group Buy through my user account, but he is no longer with the company. I'm stepping back in to breath new life into this deal and to get this project over the finish line.

We just launched the official E30 M3 deal as we had enough votes to proceed, and we knew what sizes and finishes to offer. This Group Buy on the other hand does not have a clearly defined fitment yet for the concave wheels that have been requested. My objective is to advance this deal to a point where there is consensus on what fitments will be offered. Once we have that we can launch the formal deal on the platform we've been using.

We know one fitment to offer is the 17x8" ET25 wheel, but we've seen interest in both 8.5" and 9" concave wheels.

Could we get consensus on a 17x8.5" ET20 wheel? I don't believe the offset could be much higher without contacting the strut tube.

Regarding brake clearance: The 17x8" wheel has a flat face which does clear BBKs such as Lee's kits. The concave wheels clear stock brakes no problem but will not clear a BBK because of the concave spokes.

I think the concave look great, personally I'd like to see a 8" wide available due to the fact with the angle kit on my car any wider I contact the control arm but id likely buy either way lol

That is for the M3 not the standard e30 with 4x100.

Well fuck.

Still no update? Paging PaintPro21...I'm getting anxious lol

[mrcheezle19]

Concave!!!

[MrBlack]

My vote is for the original 17x8"et25 E30 4 lug in Race Silver, followed by Anthracite. Strong preference for fitment without modification.

I concur with Webb would prefer plug n play. You can go wrong with any of the colors but if I had to choose it would be the race sliver.

Motivation for concave Apex wheels...:up:

I need this in my life, really hoping they go ahead with the concave design.

[chondamx]

Is there a thread on that car?

APEX! We want an update!

Just emailed Apex and they are going to provide an update later this week or next week. Apparently I wasn't the first to email them :)

[MrCooperS]

Pages and pages of people expressing interest and there is no update.

Would love to hear what Apex is thinking. How much commitment do they need?

[loganhopeless]

I'd be down for 17x8 or 17x9. Definitely anthracite.

I'm interested but it really depends if I'll have the money around the time the group buy starts

17x8

1) anthracite
2) silver
3) bronze

Would run 245/40/17 tires
