New 17x8 et20 Track wheel

[PaintPro21]

Just thought I'd let all the track people know there is a new 5 lug light weight track wheel coming.

This is just an informative thread. Check out the one in the Group Buy section for more details. http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=129094




THe APEX ARC-8 is a flow formed light weight wheels based on the BBS RC design, but modified for extra BBK clearance (will clear Lee's largest Kit), custom widths and offsets, and for added weight savings. (Flow forming is the process of roll forging the barrel under heat and pressure. This technology was first used on the original BBS RC and is used by others today such as BBS, SSR and Enkei and a few others)

the 17x8" et20 wheel weights in at 16.94lbs due to the low offset.
the 17x9" et42 wheel weights in at 16.60lbs

Check out www.racewheels.blogspot.com for up to date info on the wheels. More images will be added all the time, and important information is posted there. Also check out www.apexwheels.blogspot.com if you are interested in a set.

This first batch WILL NOT include 4 lug wheels. But I will see if the wheel can be modified in the future to become a 4 lug (although a minimum number of buyers would be needed to do this)

Here are some pics

He said they may be coming.

Well thought out group buy.

Richard if you want 17's you have my number. :)

Edit- Answered my own question by going to the blog site.

17x8” et20 (e30 m3 fitment) = $249 each for standard colors. +$10 for premium finish
17x9” et42 (e36 m3 fitment) = $259 each for standard colors. +$10 for premium finish

mazur, I'm starting a list of those who would seriously be interested in a 4 lug version. The list is in the GroupBuy Thread. A groupbuy for a 4 lug wheel wouldn't start for a little over 2 months as I want a sample in hand, and a solid deadline before I go asking people to pre-order.

But yes, for right now this is a 5 lug wheel as the primary market is the newer 3 series guys, and this was an adaptation of that design for the e30 m3.
