~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ These are the available ARC-8 finishes. Top four has the flat face, and bottom four has the concave face. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wheel Details: Manufacturing process: All APEX wheels are flow-formed resulting in a light weight, track and street worthy wheel. Flow-forming significantly reduces weight in the barrel by rolling the barrel out into it's final shape using large wheels/disks applying high pressure. This step is the same step that monoblock forged wheels go through to shape their barrels. By doing this, the flow-formed wheel's barrel has the same density and strength as the barrel of a fully forged wheel. This significantly reduces rotational mass at the furthest point from the center, which is the most important weight savings area on a wheel. Strength: These wheels are fully JWL/VIA certified. Strength testing was done by the VIA in Japan. Misc.

What's the recommendation for rims/tire sizes for track use with stock suspension, no camber plates, square setup?

Unfortunately the 17x8.5" ET40 is the only fitment that can work on the 1-series, and it does require camber plates in order for the wheels to properly fit. The car that is shown in the original post is using the 17x8.5" ET40 ARC-8's in the Hyper Black finish, wrapped in Maxxis RC-1 Tires in 255/40/17. The car has Eibach Suspension with approximately -3 degrees of camber in the front, and the rear fenders heavily rolled with approximately -2 degrees of camber. The rears would require the perfect combination of the proper ride height, negative camber, and rolled fenders so that the rear wheels would not rub under compression of the springs. This is an aggressive track/ race setup that is not recommended for street cars, but is a great option for those looking for wheels for their dedicated track 1-series. If you are looking for an OEM friendly fitment, both the EC-7's and ARC-8's are available in the 18x8.5" ET45 fitment.

Unfortunately the 17x8.5" ET40 will require a fender roll in the rear to fit without rubbing due to the much lower offset than OEM wheels.

We are now at the next discount level tier, only 12 people away from the maximum discount tier! The Payment period will officially open tomorrow, and will have the discount set at the current discount tier of $125 off + free shipping*. We can reach 81+ participants during the Payment Period without the need of joining in on the feeler list, which will result in the prices adjusting to the maximum discount level.

Midnight tonight is the last chance to join this Group Buy. This post will be the last update for today, so the sign-up list will no longer accurately reflect the true number of participants, until the final tally, which will be posted tomorrow.
Having hosted over a dozen Group Buys in the past. We've noticed that most people wait until the last few hours to join, so we expect a large number of orders to come in tonight still. We also have many more pending payments through Wire Transfers and PayPal that we have not accounted for. We are on track to hit the maximum discount tier, being only 5 participants away. Thank you to everyone who's participated. Official Paid List 1. Brendan B. 2. Kyle H. 3. Shane S. 4. Justin G. 5. Tudor C. 6. Ben F. 7. Shawn M. 8. Shaun W. 9. Dave D. 10. Samir R. 11. Joseph C. 12.
