► APEX - Let’s Make APEX 19” SM-10 and FL-5’s a Reality.
UPDATE 8/21 Thank you everyone for your participation. Based on your feedback, we are excited to announce that our 19” SM-10 wheels have entered into production. Our initial launch will include our most popular sizes, with additional supporting fitments arriving 2019. Sample wheels are here in real life, and they're looking amazing. We have planned on-car photos to be taken in the coming weeks, and look forward to updating the community with a real world example of what these wheels will look like mounted on various chassis. These wheels showcase new features never before seen on our 19” wheels (see images below):
These wheels are now available through our group buy here.

What I want is an 18" wheel optimized for the F22's fenders. To me, this means not being overly optimistic about trying to squeeze M2 sized tires under them. Instead, I think going .5" wider rim for both front and back along with 10mm wider rubber all around (235/40f and 255/35r) is the ticket. You get to keep the same 20mm stagger differential and tire profile between front and back tires as stock (in theory, no adverse handling effects), get a bit more rubber on the ground for performance, and surely a subtle aesthetic benefit.
I would buy SM-10 if available in 18x8 ~et40 up front with 18x8.5 ~et47 rear. This, IMHO, would be optimal for a 235/40f and 255/35r tire setup on the F22. (Above should work with 19" wheel too, but 235/35f and 255/30r tires instead) Also, if I'm going to get picky, I'd like a painted/clearcoated silver finish (see Porsche 997.1 Carrera S "lobster claw" wheels for color reference) as well as a black wheel w/ painted red pin stripe around the lip (see the red Porsche 991.2 generation GT3 release/promo car that A.P. goes over on YouTube). That is all. Thank you!

SM10 looks better in my opinion.
I'd also be much more interested in 18" sizes and offsets as mentioned by CP911 above. 19s are too big for the 2 series in my opinion. |

Thank you for your thoughts. Your feedback does go a long way, and we hope to have additional 18" options in the future

It has been a while since our last update and we wanted to get in touch with everyone. Our 19" SM-10 & FL-5 project is still going strong. Our sample wheels are set to arrive next month, and we are looking forward to giving you a real life representation of what these wheels will look like. Stay tuned as there are exciting updates coming soon

We do not have any plans to release the SM-10 in those fitments at this time, although we would love to offer something similar for the 2 series community in the future. If you are looking into a set of our SM-10 wheels today, we only currently offer the SM-10 in a squared 18x8.5" ET35 fitment that we know will work with the F2x chassis. I have included some details on this fitment below: Front & Rear: 18x8.5" ET35 with 225/40-18 tires - Direct fit. - 235/40-18 tires are typically a direct fit, but may require a touch of front negative camber if lowered. - 245/35-18 tires require approximately -1.5 degrees of front camber, and may require a touch of rear negative camber depending on tire brand and suspension setup. - 255/35-18 tires require approximately -2.2 degrees of front camber and -1.8 degrees of rear camber depending on tire brand and suspension setup. We know that this isn't quite the 18x8" and 18x8.5" staggered setup that you were looking for but if you are looking to mount the SM-10 on your 2 series, this will be the only option at this time. - Max

I'll wait to see if you guys offer something close to that fitment in the future. Fingers crossed...
