APEX wheels for the 5-lug E30 M3
Based on requests from the community, we’re looking to bring back one of our E30 M3 wheel sizes. Our options include the flat faced ARC-8 design with big brake clearance in the 17×8” ET20 size, or the concave-face version of the ARC-8 without big brake clearance in the 17×8.5” ET20 size.
Both sizes are light weight, strong, and allow for popular 17" tire sizes.
Why?
The E30 M3 community is small, and quality wheel options available from new are slim. If you want a wheel designed specifically for the E30 M3, and at a price that you can't beat, our ARC-8 wheels have been the go-to choice for 8 years. Bringing them back by group buy allows us to solve the pain of this affordable wheel being out of stock!
Feeler Thread?
We can’t achieve this goal unless we can measure the current communities size, finish preferences, and demands.
We're open minded to hear your suggestions! Color production will also be limited to a few colors to make this happen. Since the community is smaller these days, there is unlikely enough demand to make several finishes. Once there’s enough interest we’d make these wheels available via a discounted Group Buy.
Whats the discussion?
Color: Select your top 3 color choices in order of your preference
- Satin Black (not flat black, just very low gloss)
- Anthracite (aka "Gun Metal" metallic)
- Race Silver (Pure silver color, metallic)
- Hyper Black (a dark, smokey metallic silver)
- Other (write in a color choice)
How do I vote?
Vote for your ideal color choices in order of your preference. Also please reply with the following input.
Note: If you are unwilling to accept a second or third finish or size then add the text “NONE” to that choice. (keep in mind that only voting for one color means you’re telling us that "you will only buy if that one specific color is produced") It's likely that only one or two colors can be produced unless there is significant demand.

Proposed Discount:
These wheels are typically $259-275 each, so about one thousand dollars for a set + shipping.
With enough interest from the community, the group can save significantly when the deal opens. Since this would be a pre-order as well, savings are deep, potentially $100-200 off a complete set, plus free domestic shipping, or discounted international shipping.[/INDENT]
