Features

Fit Matters
The right solution for every application

The concave 17” wheels are for those looking for one of the lightest and strongest wheels that can be utilized in many applications such as a very flush fitment on a stock body E36 or E46 and a track day fitment for the E9X non-M. If you’re looking for low offset 17” wheels, these deep concave ARC-8 wheels are perfect for you.

Face Profile
One design, many levels of beauty

The ARC-8 wheels available in this Group Buy feature our deepest, most concave face profile. The shape of the concave spokes were specifically designed to all for the deepest concavity while clearing OEM brake calipers.

Spokes
More than just a pretty face

The spokes of the ARC-8 were designed to be robust where they need to be, and extra lightweight where they should be. In each iteration of our ARC-8 design, the split "Y" spokes are carefully evaluated from structural aspects to ensure light weight and remarkable strength. The lack of a deep front lip, but instead spokes that connect directly to the barrel's lip, creates a rigid wheel with incredibly even load distribution. These features help reduce one of the most common concerns with aftermarket wheels — bending. Beauty follows function with this extremely popular and timeless design.

Hub Center
Form follows function

Race wheels can't just be light, they need to function in a high performance environment. Unlike the narrow lug recesses of most other wheels, the ARC-8 wheel features a wide open hub center that easily accommodate over-sized race lugs and beefy impact sockets. This allows for quick and easy wheel changes and prevents chips and scratches from tools.

Brake Clearance
Spokes that work for you

APEX wheels properly clear all OEM brake calipers. Our wheels are targeted at the serious performance-minded owner. The spokes of the ARC-8 clear Big Brake Kits on newer model BMW’s. Older models such as the E36, E46, Z3, Z4 will require a spacer to clear aftermarket calipers. These spacers can range from 5-20mm depending on the application, which usually results in an unacceptably aggressive fitment. These wheels are best for owners with stock brakes or newer models such as the E9X and F3X. Ask our experts by using the discussion tab if you would like us to confirm your specific fitment.

Brake Clearance
A lot of room in a tight space

Spoke clearance is only half the problem. The barrel opening on a wheel also needs to be big enough to clear the sides of your caliper and rotor. Many wheels on the market have aesthetic compromises in their design that consumers don’t even know result in major negative impacts on barrel clearance. Those wheels may work with smaller stock brakes, or smaller diameter big brake kits, but the larger kits will pose a major problem. The concave 17” ARC-8 has some of the best barrel-side BBK clearance, easily fitting most aftermarket 355mm kits. Ask our experts by using the discussion tab if you would like us to confirm your specific fitment.

Hub Centric
No rings or adapters here

All APEX ARC-8 wheels are purpose built for select vehicle applications, and centering rings are never required for any BMW application. All 5x120mm bolt pattern wheels feature a direct-fit, 72.56mm center bore.

Center Cap
A factory fit and finish

We don't reuse one cap design for all of our wheels. Every ARC-8 wheel is designed to work with factory center caps. You can easily replace APEX center caps with OEM BMW roundels for a clean factory look. The ARC-8 wheels will ship with our redesigned Gloss Black center cap that mimics the size and shape of a BMW factory center cap.

Wheel Hardware
Original or Aftermarket, it all works

The ARC-8 wheel can be used with all OEM and aftermarket mounting hardware with a 60° tapered seat. Lug bolts, wheel locks, and stud conversion kits all work perfectly. The ARC-8 wheel also accepts wheel spacers without issue. The shallow rear chamfer allows the wheel to remain hub centric even when 5mm flat spacers are used. The chamfer is deep enough to clear the chamfered lip found on some aftermarket spacers that would typically cause improper seating of the wheel and, therefore, wheel vibration.

TPMS Sensors
They all fit

TPMS sensors, which monitor tire pressure, are one piece of technology that can't be compromised. The attention to OEM compatibility on the ARC-8 wheel doesn't end with center caps. All APEX wheels accept OEM and aftermarket equivalent BMW TPMS sensors, and any standard sized metal or rubber valve stem.

Flow Forming
Benefits of forging, without the pain

These APEX wheels are produced using a manufacturing process known as flow forming. This process significantly reduces weight in the barrel, which has the greatest impact on rotational mass. During the manufacturing process, rollers apply high pressure to the inner barrel, compressing the aluminum into its final shape. This effectively eliminates porosity and aligns the grain structure of the metal, which increases tensile strength. The end result is a lightweight and extremely strong barrel that equals that of a traditional forged wheel at a fraction of the cost.

Testing & Certifications
Verifiable 3rd party testing

Many companies promote their wheels as being certified by the VIA when they actually aren’t. That’s like using the USDA logo on food without permission. APEX wheels get officially tested and registered by the VIA in Japan, and we have the proof to back it up. Learn more about false VIA claims.

Japan’s JWL is a commonly followed standard for wheel load ratings. Our flow formed wheels meet, and most exceed, their load rating requirements. Most manufacturers only meet the minimum while some don’t even do that. Check and verify load ratings before you buy. Learn more about wheels that aren’t JWL.

Weight & Strength Optimization
It’s all in the details

Various design features were implemented to ensure that the ARC-8 wheel design is light, but also has the strength to handle the abuses experienced in endurance racing. We began with a beefy, multi-spoke, one-piece design. We built and tested this wheel with even higher load rating requirements than required by JWL. We added reliefs in the mounting pad to remove weight between lug holes, where we could safely save weight. The design was then run through Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to further optimize the spoke and barrel design. The result is a lightweight wheel with extra strength in all the right places. Use the ARC-8 with confidence is over built for both street and track.

Finishes
Because being faster is just not enough

The ARC-8 wheel is available in multiple finishes. All APEX wheels are finished using a comprehensive multi-stage liquid paint system over a powder coated base. Often overlooked, painted or powder coated lug hole seats can cause hardware to loosen or begin the spread of paint chipping to more visible sections. The coating process of the ARC-8 leaves lug holes, center bores, and mounting pads untouched which ensures proper fit and torque values.

Warranty
A wheel you can depend on

As of recent, all our wheels now come with a lifetime structural warranty and 1 year finish warranty, so you can be confident in your purchase. See here for full terms and conditions.

50% Off Replacement Wheels
Hit those berms like you don’t care

Do some serious damage to a wheel that’s not covered under warranty? No worries. Curb rash or even totally mangling a wheel in a car accident is covered by our APEX360° program. We offer replacements for wrecked wheels at 50% off our standard prices. See our full terms and conditions for more details.

Deal Terms & Conditions

Ordering & Payment:

Group Buys are special-order, limited-time offers. Pricing is exclusively available to those who pledge and have their discount goal met within the allotted time period. No rain-checks, including members who only showed interest but failed to pledge, or those who pledged at a discount tier that was not reached.

Pledging to participate in a Group Buy is a commitment to purchase the items in the deal, at or below the discount goal selected during checkout. You will always receive the highest discount reached by the group even if the final discount is above the level you originally selected.

Pledges can only be placed during the open phase of a Group Buy. When placing a pledge, payment information will be collected and a $1 authorization will be placed to validate your payment details. At the close of the Group Buy, the final paid member tally will determine the discount reached. If your discount goal was reached, then your pledge will convert to an official purchase and you will be charged the full amount of the order within the next 2 business days. If your discount goal was not reached, then you will be given one chance to reconsider. You will have 48 hours to alter your pledge and to participate in the deal at the final discount rate attained by the group. If you do not want to revise your pledge, your pledge will automatically be cancelled after 48 hours and you will not be charged.

Free Shipping:

This Group Buy offers free shipping to the 48 mainland US states. Buyers who have product shipped to Alaska, Hawaii, APO/FPO, and International destinations will receive a discounted shipping rate. APO/FPO should contact the vendor for a shipping quote as GangUp cannot calculate shipping via USPS for this deal.

International Shipping, Duties, & Taxes:

GangUp.com supports calculating exact costs for international orders. Customers can view their final shipping costs prior to ordering including special shipping discounts. Shipping costs do not include importation taxes, duties or any other associated costs with importing the products sold in this Group Buy. The buyer will be responsible for paying all taxes and fees to the freight carrier directly.

Fulfillment:

Vendors list the time it will take before an order will ship in the main description tab. Orders may not be cancelled if the vendor ships out the ordered product within 14 days of the originally stated “ship by date”. If dates are listed as a date range and not a specific date, then the vendor has 14 days from the last day within that range to honor their terms.

Availability:

Some products may sell out. Availability is limited to vendor’s supply on hand. Orders will be fulfilled on a first-paid-first-fulfilled basis. Within 48 hours of the deal closing, the vendor will contact you if the product you ordered sold out, or went on backorder. You will have the option to modify your selection, accept the wait for new stock, or cancel your order.

Refunds, Exchanges, and Cancellations:

Group Buy orders may only be exchanged if the product is defective. There are NO refunds on Group Buy orders. All orders are considered special order due to the unique production, fulfillment, and pricing of products. Group Buy orders may not be returned or exchanged for other products. Group Buy orders may only be warrantied for manufacturer defects or exchanged if the items received do not match the items ordered. These items do not share the same terms and conditions as traditional e-commerce purchases.

Product configurations may be edited by buyers through their GangUp accounts prior to the locking of the Group Buy. Pledges may be cancelled prior to the deal locking through the buyer's account or by contacting the vendor directly. Once the Group Buy locks and the finalization phase starts, options may not be changed, and pledges may not be cancelled.

We recommend purchasing product at the retail price directly with the vendor or one of their affiliates if you would like a traditional return policy.

Thank you. assuming these are coming from your warehouse in Sacramento, would it be possible to pickup instead of ship?

Unfortunately no pickup option is available. However if you are local to Northern California, the transit time is only 1 to 2 days once the wheels ship out!

This is a great question! Unfortunately this deal is for a full set of (4) wheels only, so we will not be offering a discounted 5th wheel option here. We do have these wheels readily available on our website if you are looking to purchase a single wheel!
