Please respond...

19x9.5'' Apex ARC-8.

Sent you an email in return sir. It sounds like one of the wheels you received may be out of round or slightly damaged from shipping, and we are happy to look into this rare occurrence. Anytime a customer experiences something like this, we will promptly work with the individual to get them a replacement wheel and quality control the returning wheel. I look forward to working with you through email, and greatly appreciate your business.

What setup is this? Looks like 18's, profile 3 F&R with perfect fitment IMO. This is what I'm looking for.... Thanks!

We are expecting these new 18x9" et30 units in at the very end of July or first week of August.

You are spot on sir, this gentleman is running the ARC-8 18x9.5 et35 in a square fitment. Depending on your suspension setup, you will need spacers up front to clear your suspension properly. Furthermore, stretching 245/35-18 tires is about the only way to get these 9.5" wheels to fit up front without having to dial in negative camber. From a performance perspective, this is really not advised.

We just launched our new ARC-8 18x9" et30 application, and as mentioned above they are due to arrive soon. This is really the better choice for e9X owners looking to run a concave fitment on all four corners, as it is a direct fit up front (better inner clearance) so that you do not have to mess with spacers. Also, 245 tire's are a more appropriate fit on a 9" wheel.

For those looking to maximize traction/grip, 255/35-18 tires can also be used with the 18x9's, and in many cases are a direct fit (light scrubbing inside the fender liners is possible at full lock etc.). Those using track oriented compounds (extreme summer tires & r-comps) will likely need to dial in negative camber up front to prevent rubbing the front fenders.

Your fitment is spot on sir! No spacers or fender mods necessary

Give us a call if you have any questions regarding fitment.

What tire size(s) is in this setup?

The 18x9 ET30 will become a standard wheel going forward. We have more hyper silver currently in production

That E90 is running 17x9" ET30 Hyper Black ARC-8's on 255/40/17 tires all around

Awesome! Thanks for the response. Definitely going to Pick up a set of 9J+30/10j+22 in hypersilver. What would be an estimate on ETA for those to be in stock?

We are hoping to have some additional stock of the 18x9 ET30 Hyper Silver by the end of the month. Are you also interested in the 18x10 ET25 in Hyper Silver?

Yea, I messed up the et by a bit haha.

I want a decently meaty setup for the rears. Will I be able to pull that off with coilovers or should I go down to the 9.5 +22?

I have a pre-lci 335i coupe.

The 18x10 ET25 is very aggressive for your E92. For customers looking for an aggressive fit, we would recommend the 18x9.5 ET22's in the rear. This is a great way to go instead of running spacers. You may need to roll your fenders, depending on ride height, tire brand/size and alignment specifications. Here is a picture of a blue e92 running 18x9.5 ET22 EC-7's in the rear

perfect, thank you for fitment help. I am used to my z3m fitments where I can easily fit 10.5" wide wheels with 295 section tire and no modifications.

No problem sir!The Z3M has those wide rear fenders which makes it easy to fit an aggressive rear. Always loved the look of that car

Do we have any pics of the new 9x18 ET30 Arc 8's mounted yet?

[b92]

Any chance of the new 18x9et30 w/ concave face being produced in 19"?

I drive an e92 335i (non-x) and would love to run:
F: 19x9et30
R: 19x9.5et33

Thanks!

We have not yet received any pictures of the 18x9 ET30's mounted from our customers. They will look similar to any of our Profile 3 concave ARC-8's already on the market

Thank you for your interest! We have not received enough demand to merit the production of a 19x9 ET30 wheel. If we see an increase in demand, it may be something we consider.

If I were to go with 18x9 +30mm Fronts, and 18x9.5 +22mm Rears
What tire selection should I go for?

255/40/18
265/35/18

I really wanted to try and go for a larger than OEM rear size to compensate for the 5% off speedometer.

Here is a picture from one of our customers. This is the recommended tire size for a staggered fitment:

Front: ARC-8 18x9 ET30 - 235/40-18 Bridgestone RE760
Rear: ARC-8 18x9.5 ET22 - 265/35-18 Bridgestone RE760



This is a direct fit up front, but a fender roll in the rear will be necessary to clear the 265's.

Hey Matt, is there any difference in concavity between the +35 and +22 offsets in the 9.5" width?

If not, would you recommend just running the 18x9.5et35 with a spacer? My fenders are slightly rolled, but they're not pulled at all.

Thanks

Both the ET35 and ET22 have the same Profile 3 Concavity. Our recommended fitment for a direct fit is:

F: 18x9" ET30 (Profile 3) - 235/40-18
R: 18x9.5" ET35 (Profile 3) - 265/35-18 (255/35-18 for LCI Sedan)

Since you fenders are rolled, you may be able to get away with a small spacer in the rear. With that said, we suggest double checking clearance, as the spacer would increase your risk of rubbing against the fender.
