One more pictured added. Thanks.
For those who are asking, you can run 235/265 with these since they are 8" in the front and 9" in the rear, but if you're lowered, you may have rubbing depending on your tire selection. With 225/255, I have heard there is no rubbing even when lowered, which is nice. |

17s ride nice, nothing more. Need 18s or 19s for a classy look. |

Sorry i cant read. I saw the 3 color choices on the web site and hyper black is the display one and not in the color choices. No wonder i like them so much as they are like a gun metal color. I need 17's for the roads around here as my car is a daily driver and i already bent a 261 and blew out a sidewall on a pothole. |

There is a huge difference between the factor wheels (which bend and crack easily) vs aftermarket high quality wheels like Apex. On my old white 135i, I had 6 cracked rims and 17 tires replaced over the course of 2.5 year (luckily I had a $0 deductible warranty). As for you sidewall blowout, was it on a runflat, or non-runflat, just curious? And FWIW, I know 17's are clearly better for comfort, and tire/wheel safety on rougher roads.... but they just look particularly blah on this platform. Hence going with a set up well manufactured Apex wheels and full road hazard warranty which covers against nails, screws, bubble, gashes, ect..... |

The tire i blew out was a non runflat hankook v12.
I drive 40 miles each way to work on the interstate. What i really need is some long lasting tires on my stock wheels and a winter set and a track set. I think the wife will ask questions if i stack that many sets in the garage. I think the aero is the best looking wheel i have seen just a little heavier than the arc-8. I guess i could just buy yours and park the car for the winter. |
