Damn son! Your setup is no joke! I've got 18" Apex ARC-8 and run Nitto NT01 which I think are much better than the R888. It's such a light setup compared to my daily BBS wheels. Worth looking at when the time comes, and these wheels clear BBK's.

But it sounds like its a non event.
Each state is different, but here you won't get a mod plate with a BOV. Must be a DV instead afaik.

Yeah it's not bad still wouldn't mind it to be a little faster haha

I think ill get some apex EC-7 soon and maybe try the NT01s. I don't k is of I should get wheels or a front splitter and diffuser but I can't really find any carbon bits I'm 100% on maybe the mode carbon stuff

Did you buy the Apex wheels locally? Will they also clear the larger 378mm Ap racing kit?

Thanks

We put an ESS 625 kit on a 2012 M3 with DTC, works like a charm. No problems at all. Actually, the problem is getting the traction on the rear.

I got them direct from Apex, but shipping was crazy, close to $600 I think.

I'd try one of their resellers, namely www.baanvelgen.com/brands/apex-wheels.html In the past I've found their shipping to be competitive and they can also supplied fitted tyres.

The ARC8 will clear the stoptech 380's, not sure about AP Racing kits though. Apex sell a newer model wheel which clear all 380mm kits
