17x8" ET25: Lightweight Track Wheels: APEX ARC-8 HERE NOW!

[PaintPro21]

A member contacted me via the phone showing interest in the 4 lug wheel, but they have not signed up on the list yet. This is still going, we have plenty of time to find members. Are people promoting the 4 lug fitment in anyway?

I didnt see this on e30 tech. I guess the owner is not around to approve group buys and stuff. Maybe someone could post it there.

Im still 100% in.

[AL FHA Q!]

nice!!!! keep us posted

[Bimmerman325i]

I'm still absolutely in. I need bigger wheels if I do the S38 swap I have my eye on.....

I tried posting this on e30tech, but wasn't able to. Is anyone able to post GBs on e30tech?

Has the shipping issue been worked out? The guys on e30zone in Britain may be interested.

I just posted this on vwvortex: http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=4294897

And here's a thread in the E30 section of bf.c linking to your bf.c GB thread:

Awesome! Glad more people are joining in!

Can anyone with a reasonably high post count post this over on E30tech? I don't have enough posts there to sell. We can't put a thread in the GB section, but we'd be good to go for the wheels and tires FS section.

17x8 et25 would be just about perfect for normal e30's. I wouldn't recommend changing it much if at all.

I truly wish I had money at the moment, I would be in right away.



Edit: here is a post by Mystikal in regards to what size and offset would be best for fitting 245's

17x8 makes it easier, because of the lack of strut room. But I'll line them out here:



17x8 ET26

17x8.5 ET20

17x9 ET13



...you can see how having the skinner wheel makes fitment 10x easier. Because not only does the wheel get wider, but you have to lower the offset to clear the front struts. Now if you want the 245s just on the back, those offsets can all be raised a bunch and fitment gets easier. More space on the inside back there.

Eddy will also check that this wheel will fit BBKs.

Yay! I hope this goes through successfully, I've been looking for something in this size and style!

will look into that further. I do believe that the strut tube is not 100% parallel with the hub, and so a 17" wheel will be further away. This is why I am not set on the offset yet.

17 x 8 ET 25, does not rub the strut. Here are a couple of pics to show what that fitment looks like on a late model.





215/40 up front, 225/45 in the rear at the time pics were taken.
