APEX F8X Track Wheel Group Buy

We've developed a new 18x11" wheel for the F8X M3 and M4. They are currently in production, and they'll be arriving this December. This Group Buy is a discounted pre-order for the first production run of these wheels. They will likely sell out, and not be available again until later in Q1, at full price. You can participate by purchasing either a full set (which includes 18x10" front wheel), or by just ordering two of the new rear wheels. If you choose to only purchase our new rear fitment, your order will receive 50% of the normal discount. We recommend purchasing a complete set to take full advantage of these discounts. Both full, and half set orders receive free* shipping.

If you’d like to read more about how we fit 315 R-Comps under a stock F8X, check out our technical article.

What’s different about our Group Buy?

Joining Group Buy deals via forums is traditionally a manual process. Since our deals have grown so large over time, we are working with a new tool to organize these deals in a single, well organized location. This deal is entirely managed on GroupBuyParts.com where you can pay, follow, and even discuss the deal’s status.

How do I participate?

Visit the official Deal Dashboard on GroupBuyParts.com. From there, you can show your interest by joining our feeler list. You’ll receive an email reminder when the deal officially opens. When the deal is live and accepting payments, you can complete checkout and pay for your order from the same page. All product details, member participants, and discussions can be found on that Dashboard.

What if I have some questions?

No problem! We're new here and so you will probably have questions... Just contact us at expert@apexraceparts.com or by direct message and we will get an answer for you about our products or how to joining the Group Buy.

Hi,

On your website (http://www.myapexparts.com/2015/10/0...11-et44-wheel/) you say: "In our next write-up, we’ll go through every track-oriented tire combination that can be run on the M3 and M4, as we move on to selecting the best tires for these cars."

What is an reasonable date that this write-up would come out?

I appreciate all the work you did to understand fitment, but I really would like to see data from track results.

Thanks, Jeff

I need 19s to be able to clear my CCB's. Will this be an option for this group buy at all?

19's are not part of this Group Buy. This Group Buy is for our 18x11" ET44 wheel only, with the option to add an 18x10" ET25 front.

We'll be hosting a separate Group Buy for a 19" track fitment in the very near future after we've confirmed real world front clearance vs. our CAD data.

Jeff,

Could you please be more specific as to what "data" you are looking for?

Our write-up is still in the works. It would be complete sometime before this deal goes into the final payment phase.

[jdherman]

Eddy,

"Could you please be more specific as to what "data" you are looking for?"

Well, I think it's one thing to measure in a garage for clearances and another thing to get the wheel/tire combination out on a track and see how it performs in real life. It seems we always learn when we test in real world conditions. I want to see what you learn from that and how it might impact your choices for wheel sizing and tires.

I wasn't sure it was possible to get track data since you haven't made the first batch of wheels yet. But clearly you are doing something so that you can do the next write-up. I'm eagerly awaiting that write-up.

Thanks again for taking such a measured (pun intended) approach to these new wheels. So many wheel makers are focused on style but not track performance. I want to be comfortable buying the full wheel set from you so that I know that I'm ready to go for HPDE and open lapping days at my favorite tracks.

What's the story with free shipping for us canucks?

Great question.

Free Shipping is for the 48 mainland domestic buyers. International customers like you will receive a $75 discount off the actual cost of shipping. The site we use to host the Group Buys cannot calculate this kind of discount so we do it manually for all international customers right now.

Simply contact our team at groupbuy@apexraceparts.com with your shipping address and requested wheels, and our team will provide you with a discounted shipping rate. They'll also process your order for you if you choose to proceed.

We just updated the links in the main post. They now properly link to the product description page.

[Eddy@ApexWheels]

Wheels are almost complete production. They'll arrive in a little over 30 days.

Guarantee you're not empty handed when the track season starts next year by being among the first to lock in a discounted set.

The Group Buy opens up for payment tonight. By participating you're guaranteed at least free shipping in this pre-order. With the wait only 30-40 days out, it's worth the $100+ savings to buy now.

I have already put my name down for this

Will they send me a price including shipping to the uk?

[jdherman]

Eddy,

How close is the "every track-oriented tire combination that can be run on the M3 and M4, as we move on to selecting the best tires for these cars." write-up to being completed?

If you joined the feeler list, you are not automatically contacted for international pricing. I received your PM, and it's been passed on to the sales staff. Within the next hour or so you'll receive a response.

Great question Jeff. We've been swapped lately due to multiple staff members taking some time off. I'm not certain I can get the article out before the payment phase ends, but the article is really just a massive list/matrix/table of all the different tire combos that could be run and their fitment pros and cons from what we know. At the end of the day most will still want a 305 rear and a 275 front, and the article will not change that. With the wheels arriving in a little over a month from now, there will be time for everyone to finalize their tire decisions.

Thanks for keeping us in check

To all our F8x Group Buy Participants, our latest production update is as follows:

The estimated arrival time of the new F8X track wheels has been pushed back a few weeks to the first week of January 2016. This change is due to unforeseen delays and pre-holiday shipping congestion.

As always, you won’t be charged until the wheels actually ship out from our California warehouse and we’ll keep you updated if there are any other changes or delays. Please contact us if you have any other questions, comments, or concerns!
