Volunteer Test Vehicles Needed for EC-7 Wheels

The EC-7 wheel prototypes are here in 13 sizes, 7 of which are new to APEX, so we are looking for an M3, preferably lowered and has a BBK to test these wheels on. If you are willing to travel to Livermore (San Francisco East Bay) for some test fitting and photos, then please contact us. This is a great opportunity to see this new wheel design on your own car, and to confirm fitment.



Some wheels are made in specialty sizes/offsets that require specific modifications for proper installation, Below is a list of vehicles we are interested in, along with the required or preferred modifications for each vehicle type.

E9X M3: ideally equipped with suspension and BBK

If you would like to volunteer please contact us at: info (at) apexraceparts (dot) com and title your email "EC-7 test vehicle", or you can give us a call at (925) 245-0773. We can offer special pricing for the EC-7s for test volunteers.

David,

Would you like to test them on a track driven car fitted with KW Clubsport suspension?

This might be a good idea for your wheel fitment guide as coilovers present a major issue in fitting wide wheels on the front of the E9x chassis. Pretty much all wheels fit on the front with the factory dampers utilizing the factory spring perch

Let us know guys. Would be glad to help you.
