Aside from fitment.... most people are looking for the following in a track wheel

1- Lightweight
2- strong/durable/ must be able to survive curb duty etc
3- commonly available
4- relatively inexpensive

The reason for #3 and #4 is that if you do bend or break a wheel... you can find one either by buying new, or.. in the case of a discontinued wheel
(since most alloy wheel designs arent around for more than about 2- 4 years) one can find one easily for sale used without having to find a " unicorn".

Currently, Apex wheels fit all these boxes... much like some other Bimwad friendly track wheels in the past..

Revolution 5 spoke
Kosei K-1
D-Force LTW ..... (perhaps not at the top of the durability scale- Your mileage may vary)
OZ superlegerra
Team Dynamics Pro Race
SSR Competition
BBS RK ( and to lesser extent the RC, CH etc.... as these start pushing the price part of the equation)

Since you owned a set of Arc-8s... the 64K question that you havent answered yet or offered any insight on , is... Why did you sell your apex wheels?
