► APEX | 18" EC-7 Lightweight Wheel Group Buy



APEX 18" EC-7 Lightweight Wheel - Group Buy
Since 2007, APEX Race Parts has been focused on and became well known for its performance wheel offerings within the BMW community. Our unwavering goal is to eliminate compromise from the enthusiasts pursuit of maximizing performance, and we feel that Group Buys are the best way to accomplish that objective. Group Buys allow us to leverage economies of scale to eliminate compromise and deliver our popular wheels at an even more compelling price points.

What’s different about this group buy?
Joining Group Buy deals via forums is traditionally a manual process that involves primitive lists, and hoping the host does a good job organizing the payment and shipping details for the entire group. Since our deals have grown so large, we are working hand in hand with a team that’s building a tool to organize these deals in a single, well organized location. This deal is entirely managed on GroupBuyParts.com, where you can discuss, pay, and follow the deal’s status.

How do I participate?
Visit the official Deal Dashboard on GroupBuyParts.com. From there you can show your interest by joining our feeler list. You’ll receive an email reminder when the deal officially opens. When the deal is live and accepting payments, you can complete checkout and pay for your order from the same page. All product details, member participants, and discussions can be found on that Dashboard.

Transit time with UPS Ground would usually take 3-4 business days to get to the Midwest, if there are no delays due to weather or unexpected events. We will ship these orders first-come, first-serve, so we suggest that you place the order early on if you'd like to be among the first to receive your order.

Will the EC-7 in 18" (specifically 18x10.5+27) clear the 382mm F10 M5 retrofit BBK? Here's the template from ECS's website. If it fits, I'm ready to buy today. I've been hunting for a set of 18" wheels that would clear these brakes. I'm pretty close to just taking them off and switching to a 355mm kit.

Thanks ahead of time!

Unfortunately, we have learned that the 18x10.5" ET 27 EC-7 does not clear the F10 M5 382mm retrofit BBK. The calipers of the brakes hits the barrels of the wheels according to the template. It looks like you would need 19" diameter wheels for these brakes unfortunately.
