Interested into getting the EC-7 in 19x9.5 +22 (or 19x10 +25) and 19x11 +44 in satin black.
Would 265/35 and 295/35 work? Rear is stock, front lowered on Eibach. Looking for flush fitment; street driving only. Can I get a quote on one of those set-ups? |

Hi Apex, I've looked through the flickr album and searched on google without much luck, but do you have any pics of EC7R in gold or black on a black f80? Or a EC7 on a black f80? Wanting buy a set for track use, love the plain silver color but I already have silver wheels and want to try something different. Thank you.

Just Mounted & put on for the upcoming Winter.
(Stock Suspension & where I have the car in my driveway it slops backwards , I will post better pictures later this week) Apex ARC-8's Anthracite 19x9.5 et 22 19x10 et 25 Blizzak LM-32 265/35/19 275/35/19 The reason for the sizing is strictly as I will not be attempting to drive the vehicle in the snow it is more so a safety precaution if I get stuck out in weather. Great Quality ! Great Fitment ! Very happy overall with the set up !

Hi the APEX Team and everyone, I'm considering a new set of APEX wheels and 200TW tires for the next track day season. My F80 M3 has CCB and is running KW Clubsport 2 Way suspension (see attached photos for the ride height). The car is running -3.1 and -2.2 camber front and rear, respectively. Both front and rear fender inner liners are having a lot of rubbing under heavy compression at the track. My concern is with the new setup will I have less or even more rubbing for track use (lapping days).
Current setup: F: 19" x 9.5" ET22 | 265/35-19 Michelin Cup 2 (non-Star) | Overall Diameter: 26.3" | Tread Width: 9.3" R: 20" x 10.5" ET34 | 285/30-20 Michelin Cup 2 (Star) | Overall Diameter: 26.8" | Tread Width: 10.3" Target new setup: F: 19" x 9.5" ET22 | 275/30-19 Falkens RT660 | Overall Diameter: 25.6" | Tread Width: 10.2" R: 19" x 11" ET43 | 305/30-19 Falkens RT660 | Overall Diameter: 26.3" | Tread Width: 11.4" While the target new setup is definitely wider, the overall diameters are smaller (and that the rear wheels have different offsets although wider). Based on APEX's fitment guide, the target new setup is APEX's Staff Pick and is a direct fit meaning no modification is required. Moreover, my car is running (not a lot) more negative camber than is suggested as required by APEX. However, given the rubbing to the front and rear fender inner liners with my current setup, I wonder if I can expect less or more rubbing with the new setup if the ride height and camber angles remain unchanged. Your help or experience with a similar wheel and tire setup will be much appreciated.

The new fitment mentioned in our recommended wheel and tire sizes should work just fine! If you ever need to get in touch with us and we aren't quick to respond here, feel free to email expert@apexraceparts.com. Happy New Year! -Ian

Hey Apex team-
I recently purchased, through Turner, the ARC-8 18x9.5 square set in Matte Bronze with 255/35R18 Blizzak WS90s for a winter setup. Unfortunately I came to realize that the front wheels don’t fit (many expletives involved). I’m hoping that I can find a way to make these work, but would appreciate any insight you have. I already have a set of 12.5mm spacers on the way as well, which were bought for better aesthetics with the summer set up, could that be a solution? Thanks in advance! |

It looks like those wheels fit just fine. You just had some bad luck with a rock in between the caliper and wheel. I woulda went with 40 series for the winter on 18s, but to each his own.

For the 18" ARC-8 in particular, we recently revised the barrel design to increase clearance in the 18x10" ET25 and 18x9.5" ET22 sizes with the F8X 380mm steel brakes in mind. All of our other non ARC-8 models have cleared from the beginning in the recommended 18x9.5" ET22 and 18x10" ET25 size, but only our V2 ARC-8 in those two sizes can work up front with those brakes. I apologize for any confusion around the wheel size ordered. If you have any questions, please let me know. -Ian

Thinking about running our f80 in SCCA autocross street class and looking for a set of wheels that fit the ruleset (stock widths and offsets within 7mm of stock).
I saw up above (post #318) that there might be a VS-5RS in 18x10 +35 that I'm not seeing on your site? Or was that a typo and they're the +25 offset? |

Thanks for catching that typo! Those wheels are indeed 18x10" ET25 and not ET35, as we do not offer a BMW 18x10" ET35 wheel in our catalog. -Geirsen
