Aggressive ARC8 fitment

[Ubersmooth]

Picked up a set of 19" ARC8's for the F82. Wanted to post to show the fitment as it currently sits, apex said this would not fit and it was hard to find a solid answer digging through the forums. Would love some feedback as to what I can make work.

Current specs:
Stock ride height
19x10 +25 275/30/19 RT660
19x10.5 + 22 305/30/19 RT660

Doesn't rub at all, however it does look like a monster truck at stock height

EMD springs are en route so the current plan is to throw 285's on the rear and hope it clears. Offset is aggressive, in person you can easily see just how much the tire sticks out.

Few more pictures. I think it'll look fantastic once lowered. Just need to make sure I get the rear tire size correct so I can save my fenders lol

There is an expensive way out. I actually have the same sized rear wheel on my Apex VS5RS -- 19x10.5 +22 with a 295/35/19 RT660. I can make it work with plenty of room because I replaced every control arm in the rear with adjustable SPL versions. This allowed me to shorten the track width like they do on the M4 GT4 cars.

Here is a pic of my car after all the control arms were replaced. Wheel specs are 20x11.5 +33 -- which sticks out 5mm more than the Apex 19x10.5 +25 albiet with a less aggressive tire.







Here is the same 20" wheel set up before I installed all the SPL stuff. Rubbed like madness.

Thanks for the advice. Fitment is great on your car. Before I go crazy on the SPL site I think I'm gonna try 285's in the rear 😂. Already going through the entire suspension on my e92, not sure my wallet can handle doing it on the f82 as well.
