Unfortunately, these wheels are back-ordered currently. However, they are currently in production and they should be restocked in the coming months.

I loove these wheels, and i could not imagine better bang for your buck. The finish is great, they are very light, and they dont look like aftermarket wheels!

Phew! I was worried since I couldn't find them on your site. My PS2's are on their last legs and I'll be upgrading both wheels and tires on my next round. Looking to go with a square setup on my 2011 328 xDrive...

Hello.

I'm from France, please understand if I don't speak so good english.

I have several questions to help me choose my APEX ARC-8 wheels and tyres.

My car is a 330i E90 in titansilber paint with N53 engine from december 2007 (built in november).

Here are some pics of it with stock wheels : 158 styling in 17' with 225/45 tyres.





I plan to keep these wheels to use them with winter tyres.

For summer tyres, I'm gonna buy APEX ARC-8.
8,5 for front
9,5 for rear

- My first question is :
Does APEX plans to build it in 19' size and hyper black tint ?

I will probably buy my wheels in april of 2015, so I can wait a bit to have the size and the color I'd prefer.

Otherwise I'll choose 18' size because if I believe what I've seen here and from googleimages, hyper black is really the most beautiful color with titansiber E9x's.

For exemple :

Second exemple :
Here http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...0&postcount=29

On the contrary, Anthracite is too dark in my opinion :

( http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...6&postcount=31 )

I bought the car with glasstint but I removed it because I didn't like it.
In my opinion this is beautiful on black cars and on white cars, not on silver cars.

- My second question :
I've read here that the best choice for tyres size for 8,5 and 9,5 wheels is 235/40/18 and 265/35/18.

In France, this is stupid, but these sizes are unauthorized, as you can see there if you read french : http://calculis.net/pneu#resultat

This is really stupid because these tyre sizes are also told to be the best with these sizes of wheels, here : http://www.pneus-online.fr/equivalen...-conseils.html

If I use 225/40 on front wheels and 255/35 on rear wheels (authorized sizes), do you think it's as good as 235/40 and 265/35 ?

We do not currently have any plans to release the 19" ARC-8's in the Hyper Black finish. The recommended tire choices for US customers is due to the added width of the wheel and overall circumference of the wheels to match up properly to not interfere with traction control or other sensor triggered modules. You can surely use the 18x8.5" ET38 and 18x9.5" ET35 with the 225/40/18 and 255/35/18 sized tires, and it's been done by some customers. It is just not the widest option, and most people prefer to go as wide as the car can handle.

Now with the right suspension. Need bigger spacers in the front and more low at the back.

They look awesome IMO. Very happy.

I ran through this entire thread, amazing. Does anyone have pics of a AW e90 with anthracite arc8s, ec7s, and ps-7s? I'm trying to decide between these 3 and it's harder than I imagined.

I also pm'd david and apex for a quote.

Anybody got the 19x9.5 ARC-8 on their E90 yet? I have square 18x9.5 ET35 ARC-8 with 265s all around on mine now, but I think I'm going to run them on my E36 now, so I'm looking for wheels for the E90 again. Would like to check out the 19x9.5 ET33 ARC-8s with 265s or 275s square (depending on which tire) but want to check out some pics first.
