Wheel Details:

ARC-8 Product Information:

Long anticipated, and arriving in Q3 2014, the APEX ARC-8 wheel will finally be available in 19″ sizes for BMW. The ARC-8 design was first released back in 2009, and originally only available in race oriented fitments in a smaller 17″ and 18″ diameters. The straight spoke mesh design allowed for a strong and light-weight wheel that quickly became popular among racers and enthusiasts alike for it’s deep spoke concavity.

The new 19″ diameter is part of APEX’s push towards supporting both the race and street crowd with specialized fitments. These larger diameter wheels are configured to cater more specifically to the aesthetic needs of the street going enthusiast, along with functional changes that better meet the needs of the street environment.

Just like the rest of the APEX wheel line, the ARC-8 is once again produced using the Flow-Forming manufacturing process. Flow-Forming, which has also been called “Roll Forging” or “Spin Forging”, produces a barrel with similar strength to that of a fully forged wheel. This reduces weight in the most significant part of the wheel, as it has the greatest impact on rotational mass.

More aggressive wheel widths and offsets were selected versus our line of race-oriented wheels, allowing for a flush fit without spacers. Now available in 17″, 18″ and 19″ diameters, the ARC-8 is produced using two unique face profiles for each diameter with increasing spoke concavity. A total of 25 BMW specific sizes will be available once these 8 new 19″ sizes arrive. This new diameter will be available in 3 finishes: Hyper Silver, Anthracite, and Satin Black. Hyper Black will not be available upon initial release. Sizes, and pricing are listed in the graphic below. Weights will be updated upon receipt of final production samples.

Strength improvements were made to help specifically address the unique abuses of the street where low-profile and stretched tire fitments are used. To help fight wheel bends, we’ve increased the thickness of the wheel’s inner lip. Load ratings exceed JWL requirements, and all sizes have been crush tested in Japan, earning them official VIA certification and registry marks. Additionally, the barrel’s diameter increases sharply after the drop center, improving big brake kit clearance. The ARC-8 also accepts OEM Roundel center caps, TPMS sensors, and comes with our newly redesigned gloss-black APEX center caps.

For those that fell in love with the ARC-8′s looks and lightweight features but wanted something larger, your wheels are now here.


Misc.
  • Comes with redesigned gloss-black APEX center caps
  • Accepts OEM Roundel center caps
  • Does not come with valve stems
  • Installs using your factory lugs or a stud conversion
  • BMW hub-centric - no centering rings
  • Accepts all wheel spacers including 5mm while still remaining hub-centric
  • TPMS compatible

Are there more pictures of that Moupe? And is it possible to run a concave profile on the fronts?

The only photos we have of the Interlagos Blue M Coupe are the ones posted in the first post unfortunately. The concave wheels can be fitted on the front with the 19x9.5" ET33 with camber plates to clear the front fenders, even though it is a very close and tight fit. You'd need at least -2.5 degrees of camber using the 255/30/19 sized tires, and depending on the ride height of the car and tire make and model, it may still rub on the fender lining a bit. It can be done but is an aggressive fitment.

Wow, that is a fantastic deal on some really nice wheels. I just picked up another Z4M, and might be in the market for some new shoes by then. On the 19x10.5 rear wheel, do you know what the largest tire size you could fit back there without rubbing on stock suspension would be? 275/30/19, or would a 285/30/19 be possible? Thanks.

The widest tires that we've seen ran on a stock Z4M with the 19x10.5" ET22 ARC-8's are the 275/30/19, and that still slightly rubs when the rear suspension is fully compressed. With rolled fender and/ or negative camber in the rear, you may be able to fit the 285/30/19 size tire, but not in 100% stock form.

Got it David, thank you for the fast reply. I'm going to see how many pennies I can save this next month or so, and hopefully I'll be able to order a set. Thanks again.
