18" rim options, show me yours

[Beedub]

Apex ARC-8 rims

These are top of my wish list, did you order from baan velgaan? And what sizes you running?

What size tyres are you running? These make me quite tempted to get 18s as they don't look too small.

those tyre sizes are perfect for those wheels, car looks great bet the car performs really well on this combo! stick with those tyres sizes imo... Really works and strangely they look like 19s! great stuff!

Who did you use for the refurb mate?

Alloyart on Purdys ind est rochford, fully blasted then powder coat and lacquered went in with 108s came out with 107s

When you consider the kerb rash the ns pair had they did an amazing job.

108s up for sale soon.

Those wheels look excellent. If I was changing from the 224's these would be high on the list.

Such a tease showing these, how much has to be done in order for the to fit if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Beedub]

stiff suspension, camber plates, totally track based GEO setup with a minimum of -2.5 e.g. camber, sensible ride height.. ( no contact at all under any driving circumstances )

On the stock suspension you'd rub severely and damaged the car quickly and lastly they are hard to find and expensive. i got stung on a first set i purchased that had cracked wheels expensive mistake....

how good do they look however??? damn!!

An old workmate of mine runs a small powder coating business behind the blinking owl cafe on the A127/canvey island slip road.
He did my elipsoids last year for me

Ohh that is quite a bit! I Have seen them on a 3l Phoenix yellow coupe with them on Instagram as well. But you are right they are such a nice rim

Completely standard but just been refurbed, clean, silver MV2's with staggered setup.
Lots of people say these are boring and old hat but from a distance and side on I really like them.

Look especially good when on the move as well.

These are my current wheels just standard 224m, a few people have just suggested lowering, spacers and returb in a new colour, haven't seen many darker cars with darker shade wheels, if anyone has any pics that would be good to see too.

Exactly what I'm doing. Like the OEMs. Just not their current state/figment. Spacers on order and in to Premier Refurbs in June!

I've seen them, they are reps but a very good rep. you could Reps in much more z4 friendly offsets.

Yeah it looks lovely, ive never seen reps of them, would be a lot cheaper as well. Another option is having my 224 refurbed/coloured then spacers + lowering springs and maybe a few other goodies
