    Threw the Borbets on to refinish the weaves! Ignore smashed hood and lack of body kit, please.

                APEX prides itself on bringing the latest technology to the automotive racing industry at affordable prices.


                Would these fit, It mentions the design makes more room for brakes. When we say "rubbing", we mean tire on strut right? I ideally want to run 215 or 225 tires with no stretching. Any one know of any 17 "style 5 or style 29 wheels in black that would fit an IX? thanks in advance.

                  No.. look at the pattern of offsets. Et25 isn't going to fit on anything wider than 7".

                    What does camber do to offsets. Would it help if there was a slight(very slight) camber. II'm not trying to stance my IX but if i would give me more room for the wheels I want it would be worth it.

                      it helps a little but you're still not going to fit an 8" wheel with an ET25 offset. it really needs to be about 30-33mm and it will be very tight fitment.

                        What about these beyerns. With 4x100 to 5x120 adapters like these.. that would bring me down to et22 right?( meaning it wouldnt work)

                              I can't wait to put them on. Never saw them on an Ix and the offsets will fill the fenders nicely. Just gotta swap my snow tires onto them in a couple wks, and I'll mount them around thanksgiving!
