I have a new set of 18" ARC-8s on my car and while I can't testify to the strength of the wheel yet I can say that they are a great looking wheel, the weights are as advertised and Apex Racing was great to deal with on the phone. They did accidently send me 9.5" instead of 10" rears but had the right wheels shipped out the day I called to exchange them. That had the wheels in stock as well so I did not have to wait months to get them.
