I too notice the different in ride comfort between the AD08 and PS2. The AD08 is laser sharp steering though. I actually got the to squeal today, the PS2 are pretty quiet.

Gotcha, thanks, I was hoping the originals would work. I'm a little worried that once I get to the track this weekend, I won't be able to get the 18mm spacers off that were required in the rear for my new Breyton wheels though. Any chance I'll still be able to fit an 18x10 with a 275/35 on over a spacer that big? Also, any recommended torque setting for whichever lugs I end up using?

Even if it doesn't rub, try to minimize using spacers and more importantly, longer lug bolts. The longer the working length of the bolt the more chances for fatigue and over torquing. The fastener dictates the torque, not the wheel. Check with your manufacturer for that. An anti seized lubricated extended lug bolt can twist at 88ftlbs. Have fun at the track!!!

Is 88 lb-ft the torque setting for the stock lugs? Sounds like that's what I'll be using to attach the Arc-8s if I can get the spacers off. |

Don't the Breytons use "tuner" lug bolts?
88ft lbs is the stock lug bolt torque spec. I use 80 for my studs...there's more fastener to stretch.

Picked up a set of 9.5 / 10.5 matched with PSS 265/285s and the difference over my stock 18s is definitely noticeable. Ride is smoother (the first thing I noticed), response is better, and I can feel a slight increase in acceleration. With the EDC on comfort, these wheels ride smooth as silk while still responding immediately to even the slightest input.
I've always thought a great set of wheels and tires are the best investment to improve your car and this seems to be true yet again. How can you go wrong with something that will take every characteristic of your car and make it better? Money well spent.

I am running 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 Apex Arc-8 wheels with 265/35 and 285/35 NT05s setup. It feels pretty good after pulling the pins but does like to push and I got 8 days out of my tires.
If I purchased another two 18x10.5 wheels could I run a square setup with 275/35 or 285/35. I was thinking about switching to NT01s or R1s. Suggestions? By the way I have e90 M3. |
