Pair of new Apex Arc 8 alloys. 18x9 ET30

[Chicken of the Cave]

Genuine sale of 2 new alloys. Just bought 4 new Arc 8 in Hyper Black from the main importer, Tegiwa, for my Z4MC. I'm a complete wheel novice and didn't realise that the 18x9 ET30 would be a tight fit on the fronts with my KW V3's, requiring spacers and a lot of negative camber and as i don't ever go on track I didn't want a lot of negative camber. Therefore I'm keeping the 18x10 rears which fit fine and swapping the fronts for a smaller wheel. The wheels are as new apart from a couple of very minor tyre fitter marks on the top of the wheel (inside the tyre area when fitted so won't be seen) as I fitted tyres and tried them on the car before realising they were not right for me. I didn't even drive the car....I just told the tyre fitter to take the tyres off straight away, took the wheels home and wiped off the tyre fitters gunk...so they really are unused, as new. In original boxes with the receipt. The overall weight saving of 4 Apex wheels over my standard 224's is approx 20kg....they are super light.

You could fit these on the front or rear of any Z4 and Tegiwa will sell you the other two alloys to match depending on what size & offset you prefer. The Apex website has an great section on fitment sizes suitable or the Z4. Ive attached an image of someone elses car fitted with Arc 8 Hyper Black for reference.

Cost me £687. Looking For £495 plus cost of postage. Collection in Derbyshire possible also.

Try advertising them on m3 cutters. They seem to like the wider apex wheels

Will do. Thanks for the advice

I'm really surprised these won't fit to be honest.

I have the et35 9.5" on the front of mine, Admittedly with smaller springs to aid clearance but yours are half an inch narrower so I would of thought they would fit ok! What size tyre did you have on it?

Hi Adam

Sorry for the delay in reply....
I put some new Michelin PS4 245 30 18 on and fitted them to the car but took them off without even driving as they stuck out beyond the wheel arch by 15mm at the top and that was with 1.5 deg of negative camber on the front already. They just didn't look right. I spoke to Apex who were very helpful and they said i would need 2 degrees or more camber with the ET 30 offset to tuck in under the wheel arches but then the V3 conical springs might rub on the inside requiring spacers! I just felt it was becoming too track focused at 2 degrees camber and thought someone who tracked their car might put them to good use instead. What springs/tyres/camber settings do you run to make yours work?

Ref OP I am currently fitting kwv3 and want to put 18 inch arc 8s on,
What size wheel/tyre do they advise would fit without spacers?

Thanks

Hi are these still for sale? Would be interested in collecting them if possible.

 

[Chicken of the Cave]

essat_m....Yes these are still for sale as I've not got around to putting them on M3 Cutters yet. PM me for address etc if you want to collect.

CRC.....it's worth looking at the Z4 fitment guide on Apex website to check and email them if unsure as they are very responsive. Probably an ET38 8.5" front wheel with V3's in my limited experience.
