APEX and Michelin 17" square setup = Happy Camper

Doug Hoover · 11-02-2018, 07:24 PM

Hi:
Just finished a 17x8.5 APEX ARC 8 (Profile 1 Hyper Silver) square setup with 245/40 ZR 17 Pilot Sport A/S 3+ Tires.
No rubbing or fitment issues.
Turn in is better than the 17" run stones by a ton, as is the ride.
All in all a great change.
It is on a 2016 228i base with Sport line. Stock suspension.

Looks good, needs low.

ET40 is correct.
Will get it a bit lower in a while.
Right now I want to put a bunch of miles on it to see what it needs.

I have a set of APEX wheel studs and they are next to be put on.

I also have a Dinan Sport tuner installed.
